:LOL This reminds me our traveling so much :D
"Two of the most powerful beings in the world cannot be wandering around lost in the Czech Republic," said Bruce.
:D :D
"I kind of like it," said Clark. "Even being lost."
See, he likes being lost too. :)
"My hero," murmured Clark. "Let's pull over and have lunch."
"What, here?" Bruce gestured out at the empty fields.
SQUEEEEE!
"I still can't believe you pulled that stunt in Kutná Hora." He shook his head, remembering. "First you drag me off to some church decorated with human bones--"
Yes! You couldn’t leave out this place. I knew it! This is so awesome! :DDD
Of course, from then it had turned into a Mystery and a Case which had ended with a gibbering curator babbling a confession to local police in between panicked tales of being hunted through the graveyard by two accusing demons with black wings and glowing red eyes. Bruce had been adorably smug about that one.
‘adorably smug’ - loved that. (And of course - it's our world greatest detective.) :)
"And what about you, huh? You heard that cat stuck in a tree from two miles away and you insisted on going out of our way so you could 'just happen to drive by' and help get it down."
That’s my Clark! :)
"Oh dear, we shouldn't have let her give us so much food, we'll never eat it all."
I know right. :D (We sort of managed, though :))
Clark shaded his eyes with a hand. "Hey, I think that's a John Deere," he said. "Looks like an 8 Series 458 Silage Special."
Bruce snorted. "Farm boy."
"City slicker."
:D Nice teasing.
"Not in any way that matters," Bruce mumbled, closing his eyes. "Not as long as we're together."
AWWWWWW!
There was a bird singing in a tree nearby; that and the low hum of the distant baler were the only sounds. Soon they were joined by quiet snoring.
Clark Kent sat and listened to the world turning around them, the chaos of their lives fading out for a moment into peace and quiet and an utterly blue sky.
Such a peaceful ending. Perfect!
THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU! That was such an amazing and lovely story Jen! It brought to me all the wonderful memories about one of the best vacation (and guests) of my life ever! And it was so funny. First Katrin and then Vashek (Vojtech isn’t at home :)) asked me why I’m laughing so much (and loudly). So I had to translate them some lines and they were like: “Ha Ha this is great!” :) You’ve totally made my day! Thank you so much! *hugs*

OMG, I should have had their rental car (which was a Skoda!) have a GPS which only spoke Czech...
Somehow I really love the idea of Clark and Bruce visiting the places we went to! I don't know quite what they were doing up in Havirov (besides rescuing Tom!) but they were definitely there!
I know right. :D (We sort of managed, though :))
But they were only two of them! (But they managed too, lol).
And I do love their lazy, almost ritualistic teasing that they totally don't mean. :)
Hehe, I feel like I gave Clark and Bruce a gift, letting them share our wonderful trip a little! :) I hope your birthday was totally perfect! *hugs*

:LOL Only spoke Czech - poor Clark and Bruce. But we know they are both good in languages, aren't they? :D
My birthday were good, though I didn't feel quite well (and I'm sick this week actually and feel horrible last a few days - I'm glad there is a weekend already and I can stay in my bed not going anywhere.)
I hope everything is well with you (though you are probably busy) and wish you a wonderful weekend! *hugs back*
