Czech it out...

One of the things I miss in Sweden is spring... it comes late and gallops along with undue haste to catch up... so it was a pleasant & relaxing change to sit in the taxi going into Prague and see the fresh green face of spring.

It is a lovely city, with fine old buildings and winding streets - plenty enough of both for a couple of days of touristing, seeing the sights and taking pictures (check them out - click on the picture). But it's not a city break we have come for, but a salsa festival... so the weekend brings a distinct change of pace.

Lots of people from half of europe (the eastern half!) thronging a capacious building not far from the city-centre. Lessons: salsa, rueda, bachata, cha-cha, footwork .. & more salsa, and in the evenings; simply dance, until the wee small hours. After all, practice makes perfect... (but it's going to need a lot of practice!)

Ahhhh... the joys of spring :-)
