Rain and the beauty of doing whatever you want



There is one idea I like. That there are almost no limitations in the things we want to do and that we can do whatever we want. It just came to my mind again while I was checking all your blogs yesterday. Thanks! :)

Not a good one but at least it's something


So why not start with something embarrassing from Bratislava.


Still in Bratislava, the New bridge.


Now in Prague. We went to see a field hockey tournament with Honza and his family.


And she was the main reason we went there :)


In southern Bohemia, the home of our cottage.




Back (well, the photos are not in a good order...) in Bratislava. The new Eurovea shopping center which basically became the new center of the town. Kind of.










Prague, heading somewhere north with a bunch of pretty american cars.








Oh, here come the books. I've read so many lately. These are from Czech author Michal Viewegh. "Ucastnici zajezdu" is my favorite.


And this set arrived from Amazon. The "Outliers" and the "Linchpin" are great!


Some snow in Prague when it shouldn't have been there.


Well, definitely not in order because this is once again in Bratislava. This stand makes preparing delicious dinner a piece of cake.


... back at the field hockey tournament.




This is in fact a splendid public swimming pool somewhere in the northern Bohemia.


While this is the hidden beauty of the Prague outskirts...




Shopping in Prague.


With my little sister.


More books. "Hruškadóttir" from Jana Sramkova, who attended the same school as I did. And again Michal Viewegh, he's really one of the most popular and productive Czech authors of today. And he lived in the same building as I did when I was a little boy. Not that it matters anymore.


I liked the name of the street.


... and the gas station directly on the street. Which is quite rare in Czech Republic.


The view.


I guess he's famous everywhere :) He says something like "I dig you, babe." It was a welcome message for a friend.








Jirka. When we visited hospital to see Marek's new baby.




Here she is :)




It is a very nice place. If you're there just for a quick visit and don't have to stay there long and alone.


This was just a good meal. I even remember every minute of eating it. Taking a pleasant phone call. And then eating it again.


This one is from Czech elections. At my old elementary school.


Shoe in shoe. They fit perfectly into each other.


My favorite place on Earth. Sardegna.




In the middle of the night. In Germany, or in Italy. I am not sure.


But I remember this... it takes like forever to go to Sardegna by a boat.


Still worth it.


It was worth visiting Bratislava again :)


Cheers! :)

Some new photos...


I have a few photos I'd like to show you...


Like this never ending attempt to write a letter without a mistake :)


Late night at work.


In Aero Cinema. Well, you have to experience this one by yourself as it is a living organism. People go in and out during projection, the projection might get, well, terribly wrong etc. But there are films you won't see anywhere else. And it's not that bad after all. Just go there when you're in Prague.




... oh, and their entrance is very dangerous :)




Now the snow series.




Our family had this car when I was younger. It was great! :)


Exhibition of artists who were rejected from various art academies. I think the title was "under the line".




We were there with a friend...


... who had her own exhibition just week later.




In Vienna...


... to see Andy Warhol's Cars and Annie Leibovitz's exhibition. Plus some others. Wonderful time. And Andy Warhol's Cars is the best exhibition I've seen in a while.


In a train back to Prague.


My swimming essentials :)


With Honza and


Terka discussing the babysitting options. Honza's baby to be clear.


Misa after she passed an exam involving the paintings she has...


... mainly to cover her face.


Must have been Sunday morning or something like that. In bed with guitar and facebook :)


I got this extraordinary book from one extraordinary person :)


Late afternoon lunch time.


And a very very long walk starting at Old Town square.
















Ending in Holesovice. The home of Ogilvy offices.


And DOX Gallery. I didn't enjoy the exhibition that much. Still, the poster for it was cool :)


2 in 1. This will be a local joke.


I couldn't resist the Robert Redford's cover when I saw it in the library.


Then I couldn't resist the pancake evening with Arizona Dream at Tomas'.






Here are the 4 GB of ram. With which the youtube videos play much more better.


After a press event in Bratislava we went to see the brand new Sheraton hotel. As one could expect, it's a top class. And the people here are so nice and helpful.




We went out with my friends who take care of me while I'm in Bratislava :)
















At the end... my shoes fell in love with Lubka's shoes.
