Svitavy to Prague

The free aire at Svitavy was tops, everything a seasoned campervanner could possibly want, but as the early evening approached, our smugness at choosing such a cracking aire was thrown into doubt. You may not remember, but our campervan buddies Neil and Kath certainly do, the trumpeter of Cadiz! It seemed like the whole band had come over from Spain, as there was definitely a Spanish slant to the music, and it was of a similar quality! Thankfully they packed up well before we’d finished our last bottle of wine! So, a lovely peaceful night’s sleep was on the cards then, well it would have been had the thunderstorm not lasted for 4 hours! We have never experienced anything quite like it, but in the morning everything seemed to be still in the right place, even though there was a general washed out look to the place.

We tipped over the 8,000 miles en route to Prague and spent the afternoon recovering from last night and preparing for our city tour tomorrow. As we drew the route of this trip on the map, the memories of the places we had visited came ‘flooding’ back. Just over 2 weeks to go now, but still plenty of new places to see even if there are no more new countries on this trip.
