A weekend in Prague!!!

After Amsterdam and Roosendaal Sky Diving…. I had this urge to continue travelling…So got a couple of friends together and we rented a car and drove to Prague on Friday night. The plan… well it was simple:

 

Leave Eindhoven… Drive to Prague, stay there until Sunday afternoon and drive back:)

 

Some people say that life is boring, well I am a strong believe that you make life what you want. So what if the trip is 10h drive… look at things from a different perspective…. 10h (one way) with friends, talking, laughing, has probably more meaning than a few drinks in the pub one night.

Plus we got to see a beautiful city… Prague. It is a magical place.

 

So here is the summary from an Engineers point of view:

1854km

20h in a car

23 coffees

4 friends + plus a mascot

1 opel Corsa 1.2

NO Tom Tom, just a map (ya we did it the old fashion way)

Departure: Friday at midnight

Arrival in Prague: 10am

Departure from Prague: 4pm Sunday

Arrival in Eindhoven: 2am Monday morning:)

Lots of fun:) Yes we saw night clubs, castle, bridges, museums', heard classical music, the church, the astrological clock, had great meals… but what really inspired me was knowing that there are no limits to what you can do when you put your mind to it.

 

Thanks guys for the great weekend.

Let me finish this entry with a GREAT quote:

“Build a world made of maps and dreams of using them all”
