[LargeFormat] Prague/London travel tips&

[Georges Giralt]

Hi !
I've beenin England (and London) and in Prague.
I think Prague is plagued by tourism, people looking at a very well 
preserved city packed with multi century monuments kept in quite good 
shape. So IMHO, I'll go all over Czeck republic, avoiding Prague unless 
you've to buy Foma films and papers. Every village have a dinstinctive 
look and feel. City center, often build around a place carry a 
mediteranean look and feel, and people tend to be frendlier outside 
Prague. Of course if you plan to take picture of tourist groups 
following the red rose or the pink umbrella, Prague is THE place to 
go... But forget about takin LF picture of buuildings in Prague.. You 
wo'nt have enough time to deploy your tripod befor a tourist rush smash 
in....
I've been there in summer with sun and nice white clouds in the sky so I 
can't comment on the climate but the Rough Guides will be able to 
comment on these.
BTW, it i said that every meal you take this side of the iron curtain 
will reduce your life expectancy a year......
I'm still alive and well ;-)
Have a nice trip !
