Curves beginning (B159 - 05/08)

A little break before riding in the nice curves which are following the moutain shapes!!
We had very nice landscape: moutains and rivers.

Pressure checking (Salzburg - 05/08)

It was important to check the tires before our trip of more than 400km in the Alpes!!
In Austria, the petrol stations provide this kind of independant pressure machine which get refilled when you put it back on its station.

Chess player (Salzburg - 04/08)

Cable Lift (Salzburg - 04/08)

We went up to Fortress by feet and we go down by this lift.
It was funny because it was quite fast.

Sunset on the city (Salzburg - 04/08)

We were finishing our diner in the same time the sun was finishing is shift.

Diner at the Fortress (Salzburg - 04/08)

We did not find a garden to lay on... So we relaxed, seated on some chairs, in front of a peacefull landscape for maybe two hours.
Then, the hungriness appeared and we went in the nearest restaurant...still with the same nice view...

View from the Fortress (Salzburgh - 04/08)

View from the Staats-Brucke bridge (Salzburg - 04/08)

We arrived tired at Salzburg, but, we wanted to see the old city... And to find a place to rest a little...
We were targeting a nice garden next or in the Salzburg's Fortress to lay down and sleep!!!
You can see the fortress in the top background of the picture.

Along the Cheimesee (Seebruck - 04/08)

Lunch break at the Chiemsee (Gstadt - 04/08)

We were expecting to see the Herrenchiemsee Castle, well, it is maybe too hidden...

Mini-living room (Munchen - 03/08)

To test the accomodation (and to economise...), we had our diner in the room.

Fully equiped (Munchen - 03/08)

In SuiteHotel rooms you can have this kind of kitchen... The minimum needed...

In the English Garden (Munchen - 03/08)

Another lucky day! (Munich - 03/08)

The "touching tradition" is known everywhere!

City center (Munich - 03/08)

We arrived around 6pm and had a short city tour.

Pic-nic time again! (B27 - 03/08)

This time we stopped somewhere in the czech country side close to the german border. We still had a long way to get to Munich.

End scene (Praha - 02/08)

Applause!!!

We on our balcony (Praha - 02/08)

"Door 16 open" (Praha - 02/08)

Funny singing man - (Praha - 02/08)

Praha offers street concerts for every taste. This funny man is singing in Czech in front of a groupe of chinese women.

The Castle (Praha - 02/08)

"Lucky day" (Praha - 02/08)

During our several old town sight seeing tours we found often a monument or statue with the costum to touch it to have luck. The one of Praha you find on the Charles Bridge.

Another old town street (Praha - 02/08)

The church in the castle (Praha -02/08)

The back of the church.

Second concert (Praha - 02/08)

The guy sat in the front was playing an instrument very original.
That was the first time, we saw somebody with the ten fingers dressed with iron hats beating on an iron board.
However, we already heard this sound when listening some Jazz music without wondering how it could be done... Very interesting!!

It's clock watching time (Praha - 02/08)

At every hour, all the tourists gather in front of this astronomic clock at the Old Town hall and watch some little statue moving...
At every hour, expecting a big show, they are mainly disappointed...

First concert (Praha - 02/08)

One nice Jazz band performance on the Charles Bridge.
They were playing some good vintage New-Orleans music!!!

We are rich !!! (Praha - 01/08)
