Day 73 Saturday 31st July:
Still raining this morning. Had a slowish start and then drove to the Czech border – through Klodzke and Kudow-Zdroj – all very alpine-ish and a real effort to being made to upgrade and provide for the ski-tourist.
Crossed the border into Czech Republic – absolute pig-sty - like most border crossings – changed Euros for Czech Kroner and headed for Hradec-Kralove – a very industrial town – and then to Kutna Hora - a UNESCO listed town. Interesting history – a medieval silver mine, Royal residence, cathedral and abbey. The Czechs are firther advanced in upgrading from the old communist era – but much evidence of this still lurking in the background.
Headed towards Prague and camped about 50 kms from the city.
