Hey Lenn,
Yes, you were very helpful, and believe me, I would love to see CZ someday.  Wine tourism....yay!

(approximately: 3 dl water - almost 1 EURO, 3 dl beer - half EURO)I remember my father (he used to run a small folklore pension in the South Bohemia - in the western CZ) was talking about foreigners coming (Dutch and British) to his pension for vacations.South Bohemia has really awesome landscapes or, if you like good wine, let's meet in the South Moravia (in the east-south of CZ - cities Znojmo, Lednice) where there's a tradition of "wine cellar" tourism : )That's all I can say to your question : ) Hope it was helpful a little bit.YoursLenn : .

Hey, I wanted to know if this is true or not.  Yesterday, I was talking to a British friend about vacations, and the lack of them here.  Well, except for the ones who rule who are permanently on it.  Anyhoo, he spontaneously said that CZ has become a "British tourist trap" and that many go there on holiday for the cheap things, and yes, he mentioned beer (but he did not say that it was cheaper than water.....lol).  Now, this man knows nothing about KJ or that I like this band.   Really, I thought this fondness was a Coleman eccentricity.  CZ is beautiful, no doubt, and I would just love to see it because of Kafka (inherent contradiction, I know, but be gentle with me.....lol), though I had no idea it was becoming very friendly to tourism???   So is this true, is CZ a tourist place for peeps on holiday or was he just messing with me?  He looked sincerely pissed.....lol -Bette

Dunno.)Never buy sandwich bread in CZ, it's all awful, bleh, ugh, fuj : /
