The Czech people take their beer drinking seriously and once the weather turns nice they leave their bars and homes and head out to the parks and patios.
Yesterday we decided to enjoy the sunshine and try out one of the beer gardens we'd heard about. We headed out to Letensky Zamecek in Letenske Sady park which is a large venue with a few restaurants, bocci ball area and plenty of picnic tables with a gorgeous view of Prague to enjoy.
Not only was there beer, sunshine, views and grass to lay on there were so many dogs! I know that Kept Man thinks that I am crazy but I miss having furry animals around me and I miss people having pets. In Marrakech it's only stray dogs and cats and the only one you see are pets are with older french expats. It's depressing. But here in Prague people have dogs as pets and they take care of them and bring them out as much as possible. I cannot believe how much I have missed seeing happy animals who belong to someone. But it makes me smile.
It was a beautiful afternoon spent drinking some mandatory beers and soaking up the sun and the views over the city of Prague. Now all we have to do is compare and contrast and try the other big beer garden in Prague, Riegrovy Sady which has TV screens for watching football games as well as sunshine. Drunk Europeans getting worked up about a football game is always a good time.
