Rainy Krumlov

Okay. If I don’t blog now I’m not going to at all. This is a rare opportunity to use a computer for a few hours and I’m not even sure it’ll be that. First things first. I just ate most of a jar of gherkins (self-prepared) and yesterday I ate a pig knuckle (dining in style). Quite important. I’m here in Cesky Krumlov its ten at night and I’m ready to move on out! Budapest is on its way in the morning and I don’t really know what the score is. I have accomodation booked for tomorrow night and I’m hoping to get a few nibbles in regard to some other possibilities soon. There is a guy on couchsurfing.com who wants people to work a few hours a day for accomodation at his hostel and that sounds like a good deal to me.

Alright.

Outside the Vatican

I’ve got a good few pages written blanketing my time in Italy and I’ll soon serve it up. Until then: It’s all about Milano for the Evolutionfest, glorious food in the wonderful Florence and simply breath taking experiences in Rome. I was expecting big things from Rome but the granduer and magnificence of that KINGDOM literally bought a tear to my eye.

With 30kg of Joy Strapped In

Oslo Statue Park

Oslo in Norway swung around next where I spent my birthday with a friend Dina from Australia and we spent four days over the weekend at the Wings of Desire convention. Curious yes?

Being the ridiculously expensive country it is I camped out a bit and quickly made my way to Copenhagen, Denmark where prices were still insulting but not so much so.

Riding Free Bikes and Trains in Copenhagen

I chilled out quite alot in Copenhagen riding the free city-bikes around got to meet some cool characters and visited the free State of Kristiania while there. I caught the bus to Hamburg then with Cody, a Canadian guy who was staying at the same hostel as me and once there met up with some familiar friends from Canberra so that we could catch the Wacken Open Air festival in Wacken! 70,000 people, 5 stages, 100 bands, four days. Yep. It was a stonker.

Somehow I made my train to Dresden by the end of it which after almost no (real) sleep for four days, left at 3:00am for an 8hour journey with two changes. A challenge indeed.

I really enjoyed Dresden as one of the most architechturally interesting and inspiring cities I’ve been to and was lucky to bag a really good hostel while there.

And in (far too) short I spent a magnificent week in Prague before bussing it to Cesky Krumlov.

I’m going to leave it there and load up this page with some photos. I hope to get a much more detailed account of whats been going on up soon because there is so so so so so much more! Or maybe I’ll just carry on with lots of random emails and scrappy blogs like this.
