Euro Trip 2010 (pics)

Bruges fucking owned, sick small city. 400 different beers to choose from, canal rides.. and a fries museum..? wat
+ Show Spoiler +

Amsterdam = sin city. Stayed backing onto the red light district. Awesome actual city too, seems very livable to me. Looking 17 ways to cross the road so I don't get hit by bikes takes getting used to... more canals.
+ Show Spoiler +

Was in Berlin to watch Germany crush England in the WC, was very awesome watching whole street/bars erupt when they scored/won. Real nightlife starts verry late.

Krakow = Trip to Auschwitz (wasn't nearly as bad as I expected) and a drink called Krupnik - which I am trying to find a way to import! Most attractive women of all the cities imo.

Prague = amazing castle. City looks great at night, was at a huge beer garden by the river overlooking the city (if people have been to Prague they probably know which one I'm talking about)
+ Show Spoiler +

Cesky Krumlov (also Czech Repulic) was the NUTS. Slow raft down the river on 35+ degree day, drinking beers all the way down.. that and a bear moat, cool.
+ Show Spoiler +

Vienna was a beautiful city, very livable aswell. Had the option of going to a quality concert (Opera season was closed however) or to the amusement park.. my cultured self went on some crazy high chair ride -.- Also had the most ridiculous ride I've seen called the Ecstasy. Bought a nice wallet from Ballys (how do you pronounce this brand zzz) Standard climb high tower shot.
+ Show Spoiler +

Budapest, first impressions sucked. Stayed in a dodgy part of town, inner city is quite nice.. didn't even make it to Buda side =/ Went to thermal baths.

Bled (Slovenia) was awesome, just a huge lake and water activities. Went white water rafting. Whole place is a postcard.
+ Show Spoiler +

Finish in Venice, what a shit place to navigate around. Stayed at the Hilton (overrated) to finish. Good women, good food/wine, good views.
Gondola Ride, and yes a pic with me in it - and some of the people I was traveling with
+ Show Spoiler +

Whole trip was wild, staying at most 3 days (Berlin), usually two. Caught public transport everywhere including an overnight train hah. Weather was fantastic after the first few days, always 30+. Next travels will feel like a breeze I'm sure.


Also bought myself one of + Show Spoiler + [these]

in January after a nearly 25k month at 1/2.



Back to the grind now, need to get some more money online and start really working towards owning a home.
Peace.

Hmm, it's a polish honey liqueur. 40%, maybe it goes by a name similar? Also maybe why I can't find somewhere to get it ^^

Yes, it's a soup , but also a liqueur (not so popular in Poland, I just recent drank it when I was in Gizycko).
There are two types:
a)a honey one - it's fine, but Honey's Zoladkowa Gorzka>>>>>it (and I will not even mention Mint ZG).
b)a clean one - and this one is VERY good, espacially when served freeze cold.

It tastes almost like water and you can drink it without any juice or other shit

i got the same watch but play shitty limits lol
nice vacation experience there im sure

Any swedes on that gondola ride?
