Strakonice achieved: part one, in which I set out like Mister Magoo

The trip was under-planned and under-resourced (I should have printed out the program and maps of the town before I left California). Also, the bankomat gives out money in 1000 Kč bills, which is equivalent to about fifty

"The bus station has one of those old fashioned toilets with a hand-written sign saying that you must pay 5 Kč (twenty-five cents) but no information about who to pay that to"

Regarding the weather in late August in Europe, here in the UK some parts had frost over Saturday night. It wasn't that cold here and it's turned a bit warmer today, but it's definitely moist out there at the moment. Which is a pity because it's the Bank Holiday weekend.
