Oh, moody...

Moody feelings in the air here.

Herodes Komputers in Modrany

2012-01-14T07:07:43-08:00

I love this bold front of Herodes Komputers in Modrany. A company which I guess will consist of two oldschool IT guys. Or not. Don't know :) Just that I love it :)

Friday at Prague Airport

2012-01-13T14:41:34-08:00

Prague Airport. It was so empty today. Maybe it felt that way because I usually go there only during holidays when it's filled with fellow travelers :) Have a good flight :)

Twilight in Prague

2012-01-12T13:17:12-08:00

Here's the new office building in Strašnice. At twilight :)

Loved this doorway no. 4 at Hradcany

2012-01-11T14:53:27-08:00

Do you find this interesting? I know I do. While on a walk from Prague Castle I just stumbled at this entrée. And found it very intriguing. Apart from the obvious, I like the staircase windows and the bowtie on the front gate :) Lovely :)

New Year Joyride through Prague

2012-01-08T14:21:04-08:00

Every year, the first Saturday is the day of New Year Joyride through Prague. It's a tradition few men with Willyses and other old Jeeps started years ago. There are more Jeeps now. And in fact, it doesn't matter that much if you have old or new Jeep.

It all starts at Kampa and the convoy goes and stops at Prague castle, at Jana Palacha square right in front of Rudolfinum, then at Old Town square and finishes at Wenceslas square. Quite a ride.

I don't have to tell you that it causes a lot of excitment everywhere :)

... and here are some photos from this year's Joyride through Prague.

Prague at Christmas, Prague at Winter

2012-01-07T13:49:29-08:00

Guess some of you have it literally the same. This Winter and Christmas in Prague were so not winterish or Christmasish...

Let's start with winter. There is no snow and it's not freezing. Not a bit. People walk here in summer sneakers. Wouldn't believe it myself. Where is the snow?

And the Christmas. This time it was so differrent. Our former president Vaclav Havel died. There was three-day mourning just prior the Christmas day. He was a great man. And his spirit was in the air. And people were calm and thinking about things we don't usually think about. It really was different.

Still lots and lots of tourists here in Prague, though.

Dejvice - look at the view

2011-12-03T00:40:45-08:00

Dejvice is our new home. For at least a few more months. And there's one thing about Dejvice... it is really nice for living. It's on the other side of Prague (north) which is calm, full of nature, and still close to everything. Plus you get those spectacular views from Dejvice. That's Prague Castle on the horizon. I will show you more as we wander around Dejvice, usually in great amazement :)

Jeep and its 70 years

2011-10-31T15:58:20-07:00

Did you know that Jeep celebrates 70th anniversary this year? Well, we spent last few months planning a big celebration of its 70 years here in the Czech Republic. It turned out to be a big success :) We had over 100 Jeeps on the rivefront in Prague facing the Prague Castle and went up to 165 Jeeps at our two more locations in central Bohemia. What a great three days :)

Did you notice similar celebrations in your county? I'm being a little curious :)

Moving from Vinohrady

2011-09-30T01:39:45-07:00

Today we're leaving Vinohrady and our TV Tower view. New destination: Dejvice. Moving is such an exciting thing :)

The Silent clapping record at Palackeho square

2011-09-26T14:55:52-07:00

They had a deaf event here at Palackeho square. And part of their programme was this 2 minutes silent clapping record. Everybody had those white gloves and it was simply great and full of energy :)

Experience the city differently

2011-09-24T12:44:50-07:00

It was a special day in Prague today. We have this "experience the city differently" thing going on. And it was quite nice. There were a lot of extra activities all around Prague. What is catched on today's photos are the cycling and transformation of Americka street. Add the perfect weather and you'd like to have a day like this every weekend :)

Curve and advantages of Modrany

2011-09-16T04:32:13-07:00

Nice thing about Modrany is that: it is close to greens (=nature and forest etc.) on the Southern end of Prague, it's on the hill and you get great views over the city and Vltava river, and thanks to Prague public transport you are downtown in about 20-30 minutes.

Lunch at Ladvi

2011-09-15T08:09:02-07:00

One think you get when you're older is that you remember "when there were no subway station here" :) As is in this case with Ladvi. We were having a lunch in this restaurant from the 80s on Sunday. It looks very grey and not-interesting but you usually get good Czech food for really low prices in these kinds of restaurants. And they serve Kofola, of course... :)

Preparations for the Czech F-Body Session

2011-08-26T01:39:26-07:00

We are in the preparations of a big Camaro and Firebird event and this is from the video teaser shooting, the actual place where all the cars will be parked. I think it's a nice place :) At the river with views on Prague Castle and with farmer's market nearby. What else would you need :)

If you're in Prague on September 10, here are more information and the final video teaser: http://www.chevroletcamaro.cz/fbody/

Superwoman seeks the chinese food

2011-08-19T16:48:20-07:00

This is our chinese restaurant of choice while we do laundry. It's just few steps from Namesti Miru square.

Rainbow over Prague TV Tower

2011-08-12T21:59:33-07:00

Prague TV Tower looks interesting everyday now. Few days ago, it had this big double rainbow.

The end of the world sky over Prague

2011-08-07T14:01:41-07:00

After the rainy rainy Sunday there was this dramatic sunset and a hope for a perfect Monday in Prague :)

The Four old friends in Modrany

2011-07-31T11:04:39-07:00

These four in the centre just got off the Modrany farmer's market. Few years ago there was just an empty square with nothing. Now, they have farmer's market here. Quite popular judging from the number of people there.

Saab in Anglicka street

2011-07-30T02:35:13-07:00

One of the busiest streets in Prague, Zitna street, starts just around the corner. This is still Anglicka street which tends to be calmer. Especially on Sundays :) ... and my first boss (when I was much younger) tended to like Saabs and has a few of them now.
