Maybe it's the orange roofs that make this town seem timeless, the variety of meals you can get alongside the stream (including vegetarian, which makes Lisa incredibly giddy), the ice cream cones that accompany your strolls on cobblestone, the amazing castle that makes you feel like you're on set for a fairy tale. Maybe the fact that the town square doesn't have a single chain in it AND it rejected McDonalds not one, but three times, adds to the town's character... Maybe all of the above!
Either way, today was great. We toured the castle and its grounds, then walked along the streets. We love being able to share this with our parents, who haven't been to Europe since late 2002. Tomorrow, we all return to Prague, then on the 25th we part ways - Mom and Dad to the US, us to Austria.
Ok you've convinced me, I've got to go there!
