Prague
Nice, isn't it? I was there Monday - Wednesday, and had time for a
look around the city.
We had a very fine dinner at the town hall, and nobody was thrown out
of any windows.

I've got a list of mitteleuropa places I want to see, and Prague is
one of them. Glad to hear someone got there.

Several times a year I used to ring Dad and not get an answer for a week
- he was in Prague enjoying himself. Then, when he got to 80 the
hire-car situation got a lot harder.

I passed through (6-8 hours) in 1995 en route to Kosice.
A little surprised to see a female attendant in the gents' loo.
Then a week in 2001. Too preoccupied to do the tourist things, but did
see the famous (Wenceslas?) square, an inevitable "Irish" pub and drank
absinthe at street cafes.
I remember lots of wreaths by a memorial on a main drag. Twin towers?

Smiling is OK.
Giggling is not.

... the hydrostatic paradox of controversy. Don't you know what that
means? Well, I will tell you. You know that, if you had a bent tube,
one arm of which was of the size of a pipe-stem, and the other big
enough to hold the ocean, water would stand at the same height in
one as in the other. Controversy equalizes fools and wise men in
the same way. And the fools know it. Oliver Wendell Holmes

I've only ever seen the inside of the airport so far but it's on my
mental list TAAW of places I want to spend time in.
