After spending some quality time in Berlin, our plans led us to the Czech Republic where we visited Prague and went to the Let it Roll festival for Drum 'n' Bass music. The Czech Republic had some of the nicest roads we experienced with seemingly endless fields, rivers and woods. We build up ur first camp just one our north of Prague by a river.
The next day we headed to Prague to do some shopping (read beer) for the Let it Roll festival, had a glance at the city and then travelled further to Milovice, a small town near Prague, where the festival took place.
Jan and me having fun while setting up the tents on the festival camping:
We had lots of fun on the festival meeting very nice people, although the music tended to be quite similar on every stage and every DJ played more or less the same tunes throughout the whole festival. So we spent most of the time on the campground, got creative and built our very own table made from beer cans:
As you can see we brought our gas cooker to the campsite, resulting in the most deluxe food at a festival yet (for me at least).
After three days of raving at the festival we went back to Prague to find a place to stay and start exploring the city. Prague really became one of my favourite cities of Europe during that time, with many cultural highlights, nice people, and sites worth visiting.
The campground we stayed on was rather busy and full of beautiful people. Sure it was nice to be able to take a hot shower and have free Wi-Fi aswell. We shared the site with some Belgians, who were on tour with their Baywindow Westfalias:
It was a quite confusing experience to leave the bus behind at the campsite and explore the city by tram and by foot. It feels like coming home when you've made it back to the van after a long day of sight seeing and exploring the city. Since our campground was on a small peninsula, our way into the city included a short ferry ride. The 'ferry' was much more of a tiny boat than an actual ferry and the guy piloting it was a really nice fella. The boat even had a thing to stamp your tickets (which were actual tram tickets).
Taking the subway in Prague is a brilliant experience aswell, since the subway network consists of beautifully designed stations, and the wait for the next train is always a short one.
We had a really good time in Prague, getting to know the city, visiting local bars, meeting new people and enjoying life. After some days we really missed being out in the nature though, so we went on. But I am sure I will see you again some time, Prague.
