Czech Republic to Hungary/Hungry

Czech to Hungary

Another trip with Bill  and this time he is bringing along some friends.  He is still on trip probabtion.  A key word here is Hungry/Hungary.  Bill’s main concern is where he will get a hamburger.  He does not care that part of traveling is the cultural experience of eating what the “natives” eat.  He just wants a hamburger.  He almost faints every time I say the word “goulash.”  I have been researching for this trip for about 6 months to find the most important historical sites, restaurants, entertainment venues, etc. and his one instruction for me was to make sure he had a hamburger. 

We will be traveling in the Czech Republic (Prague and Cesky Krumlov), Germany, Austria, and end up in Budapest.  Part of this is a Danube river cruise which we have saved up for and since we have been married 40 years and I turned 30 this year we felt this was our blow out trip! 

Our friends for over 40 years Charlene and Ronnie  will be going with us and I so hope that we will be friends after this!  An extended trip of 17 days on another continent will certaininly try a marriage and friendship.  Bill is not the best traveler and I hope our friends can tolerate his travel oddities.  I have to anticipate his hunger needs 30 minutes prior to a possible tantrum.  Additionally, I have to anticipate the state of his gastric juices to make sure that the snack/meal agrees with his digestive system.  Sounds like my kids at the age of 2!  If he gets on everyone’s nerves, we will just let him wander off.  The only Czech that he knows is “hello” so he will never find his way home!

I have used this blog site before and it was difficult for people to make comments.  Please try because it makes it worth writing and makes me feel connected to home.  If you can’t get the blog, PM me on Facebook.  I am going to try to have it post on Facebook.  

P.S.  I have found a hamburger place at the beginning and the end of the trip for Bill.  He will have to suffer in between!
