Czech Points.

Hello from Zatec!!

The aliens have landed and they brought bicycles and they speak in a language you don't understand and they are soaking wet and seem not to care about it... but don't worry, we don't understand you either:)

Just 35 kms away to our next parrrrty!!
Did we say that the location of the festival changed and this meant 90 extra kilometers for us? Well, we are making it on time and even too early as the first part of the route was luckily quite flat and our legs stopped suffering weeks ago. Really in the mood to dance and dance and dance...

General impressions: this country is just beautiful. 50 shades of green, should be the name of this post. Except for the gray road, the sky and some occasional yellow fields, all we see is green. Nice hills, awesome silhouettes of mountains in the horizon, little colorful villages with bars where locals smoke their cigarettes and speak loud while drinking their beers or tasty coffees. Great!

Last night we camped almost for free in a small spot of grass among the bungalows of a strange camping that was closed or going under reparation or something. It was a very hobo camping, with everything sort of falling apart and three sheep that seemed to enjoy our company as they replied when one of us talked. There were also millions of mini frogs camouflaged in the grass and jumping in all directions, pretty weird as their movement made the ground look unsteady, wouldn't want to be on acid here.

It seems that the sun made a bet with the rain and the rain won- we have really been hit hard today. We were close to calling the fireguards for help so they could pump the water out of our shoes.
The temperature dropped like 20 degrees in the last two days, but we didn't really care as we were too busy cursing these damned beautiful fucking mountains we are trying to cross, or conquer, as our dear friend couchsurfer Frank would say :)

Now, what can I say more about this country? I feel at home. If ever I was bipolar, this country is too, changing from good roads to holes with a little asphalt around them, going to tourist information points where they have never heard of English to buying cigarettes and getting a full reply in clean standard English, from sun to rain and rain to sun, from thinking that Czechs don't know how to smile to seeing one so big that I feared he was going to stay in a perpetual smile.








Yeah yeah, promises promises... I went in and they didn't want to sell me any drugs and there were no tits neither... It reminds me of the time I went to a coffee shop in Rotterdam and asked for a coffee and instead they gave me a tea :)


 YES


 AH yes!!  Maybe some of you already know that we are making a bit of promotion for LOST THEORY FESTIVAL (14-19 AUGUST, DERINGAJ, CROATIA: wicked line up, more than beautiful location and great people). But what some of you may not know is that when you decide to accompany us you can get a discount on your ticket at the gate, depending on the kms you have biked with us!! There is also a little contest going on where we can give away one free ticket to whoever finds us @ VIBE and SUN festivals!!! Good luck!! (we won't accept bribes unless they are drinkable or smokable and preferably in large amounts ;) Just kidding... euh, or not, this is confusing... Anyway, you know what we are getting at here, just be the first one finding us). ONE ticket per festival, so practice on your Where is Waldo books and come find us!



That's about it for the moment. I am sure that you want to hear more exciting stories from these tipsy gipsies and their crazy adventures, but at the end we are just plain boring humans and we need to sleep except when full power partying, crazy bicycling in the rain with big freaking trucks passing us by and f...ing a lot (farting, of course, what were you guys thinking?!)

Buenas noches, good night, sleep well...
