Sumava, Czech Republic

Some pics of the beautiful South Bohemian forest, the Sumava.


First is Me when we decided to forge our own path through the wilderness ... ok so the track we were following was closed, so then we followed the train line (like in a movie! only with more mud, only leaping one river ... ok stream, and the only wildlife was one terrified snake ... um actually all of that could probably be in a movie too!!), then we thought what the heck and got on a track that went roughly the right direction (and away from the train line) and wandered through the forest until we hit the town we were aiming for :) Er mum and dad if you are reading this then i’m just kidding about everything i just wrote ... really!

Second pic is when i’d had enough of travelling with Ve so i left her in the forest at night like Hansel and Gretel! Or it was possibly when i discovered the colour filters on my camera ;) Filters are fuuuuuun plus Ve is absolutely awesome to travel with and we are having a great time and haven’t tried to kill each other once!




Third is Vera with her new pet rock





Fourth is the Sumava forest we walked through.


I should note that every word i write in Czech is missing all its doovy whatsits on top of half the letters cos i am too lazy to find them on my laptop. So the forest should really be pronounced “Shoomarvar” just in a case you ever say it to a Czech person and they look at you like you’re an idiot ... and yes we certainly do know that look first hand ;)
