Moving On!

Not exactly a "big 8 wheeler moving down the track", but none-the-less trains are a preferred means of travel in the Czech Republic. We took an early morning taxi from Cesky Krumlov to Cesky Budejovice (BOO-dyeh-yoh-vee-tseh), the home of the original Budevar, or Budweiser where we got on a train to begin our trip home.

It's a little tricky getting on the right car, but that can be worked out between towns. That's important because cars are moved between trains at most stops. You can get on a train you thing is going to Regensburg, Germany and wind up in Vienna, Austria if you don't keep asking questions.


You go from city to city as a tourist and you see the best that is in a country - their best foot is placed forward. It is on the trips beetween cities that you can see into the land.



I saw a wounded land when I traveled across the Czech Republic.

It is ready to rebuild, but it is has not heard of corporate globalism. It doesn't even begin to understand what is coming down the tracks.
