These pics bring you upto date with our journey so far! sorry I have posted in antichronological order just to befuddle you, I'm like that. We are now about to break our fast with bread and cheese (we are in europe what else!) and then set about thoroughly photographing the heck out of this place (cesky Krumlov - the cute medieval town). We will have a very comprehensive photographic record of this trip when we are done of intestest no no-one but our very worthy selves. Some of you lucky souls will be on the recieving end of said photographic record when we do return! Consider yourselves warned!
ps. the crazy bones pic are just that, we visited a chapel which had a crypt decorated with the bones of approximately 40,000 people! Decorations including the chandalier you see and also several huge bone pyramids and a bone coat of arms! Crazy!




These are some pics of Prague and a random pic of a particularly energetic group of street performers in Edinburgh. We were lucky enough to be in Edinburgh in time to catch the end of the Fringe festival so we were distracted from our aching feet (much watching) by the constant shinanegens of performers from all over the world. We didn't manage to however go out at night to see a show proper due to my amazing 'look I am just like an old man falling asleep' trick. sigh....

Scotland playing the Springbocs (South Africa) at Rugby in Edinburgh.
A view down Princes street (the High street) in Edinburgh. The dark gothic pointy thing is the Scot Monument (to Sir Walter Scot).

Here are some pictures of our trip so far. I havn't had much time to go through them but I think these are decent. Maybe I should start using the big lcd screen on my camera or maybe it is just this computer but alot of my pics seem much to dark on the computer screen. Ah well! We have been in Prague for 3 days and are now in Cesky Krumlov a lovely, almost entirely intact medieval town. Prague was wonderful of course, very beautiful and elegant and the beer naturaly was amazing. Oh the there are also pictures of the couple of days we spent in Edinburgh before we came here, we watched the Scotland vs. South Africa game, we lost booooo. Expect more pictures to be uploaded in the near future!
