I uploaded the GPS tracks for the other 3 days as well

i fear i have to edit the tracks a bit and remove some track points which are corrupted .... but it gives a nice idea already :)

i will see if i can upload my waypoints as well :)

i will stop spamming this czech board with english posts, thanks for your input and sorry for disturbing :)

i will continue this at my WorldWide fellowship : http://brainking.nl/nl/Board?bc=2187

Fencer: :) my gps didnt have connection everywhere in prague (tall buildings, narrow sight to the sky)

sometimes when it has a bad connection it makes up some fake trackpoints

i removed the ones which are most clearly wrong (there were some in finland, denmark, the sea in between, greece, ..) but it seems i have to check some closer .. the 1 point of the river is wrong as well (we were on a cruise on the river then :))

(there we also some track points with an altitude of +2000 m :))

will submit the tracks from the other days as well

nice! i just noticed the altitude table on that page .. didnt know about that .. and it offers the track in kml as well .. will check that out as well :)

Our first day in Prague, please let me know if you can see the GPS track (25-10-2007) :

Krecik: yes, i have to find out which software i used for it, i downloaded some yesterday will test them this evening

Krecik: you mean its beauties ;) .. ok ok .. there are too many way to deform a word when its used in another way ... and too many extra signs '`~^ ... but thats fun :)

hmm does anyone know a way to put a gps track & waypoints online to be viewed by other people ? i had my gps with me and want to show where i have been :)

Krecik: czech should be as well!! its more beautiful than english ;)

Gror: lol! it makes life more exciting though ... i am talking about the stairs of course ;)

the funny thing was that the only toilet doors we could lock were the ones in the mac donalds (where we were once, only to go to the toilet :))

Krecik: ahoj, diky

your english is better than my czech :)

i liked the coin .. i like coins over paper anyway .. although paper is more practical for sure :)

that reminds me that i should have a look if i can find some people who get some of the new euro coins my way :)

cau ;)

Milioi: its a great city! (i had a gps with me (for tracking what we walked and to set some waypoints) .. i now noticed that i cant read it with my new pc .. no serial port on it anymore .. will have to get myself a converter for usb-rs232 :)

2 questions :
- is it not possible to lock the toilet door in czech ? we couldnt in no restaurant and neither in our hotel room (the hotel room itself could be locked though of course :))

- are there coins of 50 ckr ? i got 1 as change from a restaurant .. but i wonder if its still valid as i didnt see it anywhere else .... i love having it though .. i love to have coins from places where i have been :)

Fencer: the upper part of the castle was closed as well ... was that also for some preparation ? .. we climbed all the way up .. just to notice we had to enter at the bottom and so we had to walk down again ;) .. and then inside we walked upwards again :)

prague was beautiful!

and has a lot of stairs! (my legs are glad to be back in flat holland, but my mind wants still to be in prague :))

some questions:

on the 25th of october (last thursday) there were a lot of soldiers on the square above the castle .. i think they were waiting for someone honourable to be a honour guard/watch ?

on the same evening there was a performance on the republic square and afterwards some fireworks .. was that to celebrate something ?

i will upload some pictures soon and tell some more about what a dutch tourist does do in prague :)

Krecik: thanks! those are nice prices :)
will see what the centre dares to charge us :)

Fencer: wow great site!!!!! thanks! :)

Krecik: i heard they are quite touristic so i expected similar prices as here in the netherlands, but their prices are about half of it

i didnt know they had cabaret as well .. i thought it would be a normal pub :)

what are 'normal' prices for drinks and food in czech ?

hi,

sorry for posting this in english, but my czech is limited to 1 word 'diky' ... and i dont even spell that right :)

i have a question which some might be able to help me with :

my girlfriend and i are going to prague for 4 days (next week) and we are wondering which restaurants would be nice :)

i like to try food i havent eaten before and like to eat a countries dish ... my girlfriend is a vegetarian though and sometimes a bit picky in what she likes to eat ... but she will submit to my wishes ;) :)
(she always like italian restaurants though :))

can anyone suggest some nice restaurants close to the jewish quarter (or somewhere else in prague :))
Gror already sent me a nice map which shows some (or maybe even all, there are a lot of them on it) and suggested the Jindrisske veze restaurant so we will probably try that one as well :)

any tips would be welcome .. we will try to fit it all in 4 days :)

i just heard about a pub called U-Fleku ... does anyone know about it ?
