Czech Republic: Boat trip Prague -> Slapy

Czechs are famous for their favourite weekend past time – tending to their summer houses – which are anything from simple sheds, cabin lodges, huts to luxurious chalets – and river sailing. So during one visit in Prague I decided to give it a go and set by a steamboat on Vltava river to Slapy (an area of weekend houses and sailing boats) to visit friends. During the trip, our boat went through three boat lift canals of the Vltava cascade. What an experience! In the last and the highest one, two swans and their young ones joined us. I was worried about them, but they made it safely. Maybe not the first time. 🙂

Boat Trip Prague-Slapy, Vltava, Czech Republic

Česká chatárska a vodácka kultúra je všeobecne známa. Tak som to vyskúšala aj ja. Počas návštevy Prahy som sa vybrala za kamarátmi, ktorí chatárčili na Slapoch. Samozrejme, ako inak, parníkom po Vltave. Cestou sme dali tri plavebné komory Vltavskej kaskády. No poviem vám, bol to zážitok! Začínali sme najnižším prevýšením, čo bolo asi dobre, lebo v tej najvyššej som sa fakt bála. Dokonca sa v tej navyššej s nami previezli aj dve labute s mladými. A bez problémov to zvládli. Asi to nerobili prvý krát. 🙂
