Just when I thought I’d be safe wandering the streets of Prague…
AVALANCHE!!!
Not sure where the nearest official mountain is to Prague 5 but I’m guessing Liberec direction. So that’s at least an hour’s drive out of the city. You’d think, therefore, the likelihood of getting caught in an avalanche is pretty minimal. We’ll you’d be wrong.
The snow was still falling in sodden flakes as I trudged along the pavement. It wasn’t easy going, even if I stuck to the cleared pathways and got heavier still every time I ventured off the beaten track through knee high drifts on either side.
This kind of harsh winter weather burns a lot of energy. It’s gratifying to know therefore that Czech cuisine provides the perfect antidote to subzero temperatures: Roasted duck, dumplings and cabbage.
Happy Birthday to me, happy birthday to me… I know I haven’t posted a blog in a while but I have my excuses. I’ve had a crazy ten days. Mind you, it’s the same every year so perhaps there are no excuses…
Problem is my Christmas is closely followed by New Year and hot on the heels of that… my Birthday! That’s a whole lot of fun and almost no time to write…
