Titty is having five days rest whilst we don't! Time off the tandem but too many mountains here in the Tatras to explore (with already tired legs). We arrived here with clear blue skies but since then we've had heavy cloud cover, rain, wind, fog, snow and a little bit of sunshine. Very close encouners with mountain foxes and a stag, fortunately we haven't run into any brown bears - but they are here somewhere. Mountains are spectacular even though we haven't seen them at their best but paths are rough and boy is it cold when you get up high. Donna has resorted to buying a bottle of brandy to warm her up after each walk. Things we forgot to mention previously - Czech / Slovakia has so many cobbled streets in town / village centres that all the prams and pushchairs we have seen have built in suspension, it's difficult to find free public loos, in fact McDonalds in Prague charge for using their toilets (even if you have bought a burger) and some restaurants charge as well. Across Germany, Czech republic and Slovakia everywhere seems to have drain problems, the whiff at times is overwhelming!
