Tommaso, >>It is somewhat discouraging to plan a trip with great care and then have your airline go bust and your destination flooded, especially when your own home town is in the midst of the worst drought ever seen. and all your plants are dying. And I haven't even learned the Czech word for "beer."

LOL. One thing for sure - you will not forget this trip.

Have a good trip.

Joan

T, Piva, pronounced Pee-Va is the Russian word for beer. Most Slavic languages have the same roots for important words like that. "Ya Pyoo Piva," means I drink beer. That should be enough to get you a stein, though you may also be hung as a KGB spy. <g>

Those floods are ugly.
