After changing a few Euros into Czech Crowns, the most noticable change was that I couldn’t understand the signs or anything that was said. The language is nothing like the normal European languages I’m familiar with, (Spanish, French, German, Dutch, Italian, and Portuguese) so it was a strange feeling to travel without knowing how to ask directions or even to recognize the difference between a bakery and a vegetable shop. |

Nachdem ich etwas Geld in Tschechische Kronen gewechselt hatte, die größte Veränderung war dass ich weder die Schilder noch ein einziges Wort, dass geredet wurde. Die Sprache ist nichts wie die normalen europäischen Sprachen, die ich kenne, so es war ein komisches Gefühl herumzureisen ohne zu wissen wie man den richtigen Weg findet oder sogar den unterschied zwischen eine Bäckerei oder ein Gemüseladen zu erkennen. |

Labe River AKA Elbe River |

It took me a while to realize that the Elbe River was called the Labe in the Czech Republic. |

Ich habe eine Weile gebraucht, bis ich verstanden habe, dass die Elbe in der Tschechei die Labe heißt. |

The towns had interesting names, like “I love Luzi” and “Horny” but my favorite was Dedibaby near a castle where I spent the coldest night of the trip in a campground. |

Die Dörfer hatten interessante Namen, aber mein Lieblingsdorf war Dedibaby, nicht weit von dem Schloss unten, und wo ich die kälteste Nacht meiner Reise verbracht hatte. |

If you look carefully, you can see the frost on the grass! Man, was it cold that night! I was in long underwear and 3 sleeping bags, and I didn’t want to get out of bed the next morning until nature forced me to find the WC. |

Wenn Du genau hinschaust, siehst Du den Frost auf dem Grass! Es war verdammt kalt in der Nacht. I hatte lange Skiunterwäsche und 3 Schlafsäcke und wollte gar nicht aufstehen bis ich endlich ein WC aufsuchen musste. |
