Pole Vaulting & Delicious beer - Prague

Our first experience of Prague was the long and tedious drive into the city hampered by  roadworks. Looks like a massive new road is being built to take cars directly into the centre of town.  The temperature was pushing 35 degrees and the air-con was getting into its work.  Found an awesome campground close to a tram that traveled into the city centre.  Main attractions that we checked out included the Charles Bridge, Prague Castle & Vysehrad fortress.  In between these points the winding streets provided plenty of interest and cheap weisbeer.
