We awoke at sunrise to a beautiful day with equally gorgeous views. We had breakfast overlooking the lake then took off for Milan. Thank god it wasn't raining, but the road trip was still fairly precarious. The Italian drivers took it all in their stride and flew around the blind corners on the wrong side of the too narrow road with abandon. We were less cavalier. We were almost as stressed as the night before! Luckily this stretch wasn't as long (and it ...

We called an uber driver with the plan of going to the airport via Charles Bridge as although we saw it yesterday, we didn't get a chance to walk across it. When we asked the driver he was confused as we had booked for the airport, we explained that we did want to go to the airport, but via the bridge.

We had a lovely sleep in before taking off for today's site seeing. We headed off in the opposite direction from what I thought was the right way. After a brief discussion we decided to part ways for the day. As Anthony had now increased the distance he feels he needs to walk ahead of me I didn't feel this was any loss. Anthony complained that I walk too slow and on top of that every time he turns around I've stopped to look at something! Apparently i...
