I have finally got that bluetooth thing so I am now able to transfer photos from my phone to my computer. I am gonna post some here, photo spam is coming!

[Tempus]

Nice.
Your phone takes waaay nice pics!

[Wayzor]

Yer, as Jude said. Your phone makes good quality pics - for a phone anyhow.
What phone is it Rob?

Could you put a little info under some of them perhaps?
Oh and take some more pics please. I am interested in your local, as my family have always wanted to visit there.

nice pics m8

Ha I missed these replies.... thanks.

It was made by Nokia 6630, it has 1.3Mpx camera. It was impressive in that year the phone was released, today with 3Mpx phones it doesnt look great anymore, but photos are still good.... for phone that is.

Wayzor, which part of CZ your family want to visit? I would recommend Moravia, they have great wine there hehe. Also very cool ppl (mostly becouse they are drunk all day). I will make more pics, I think snow is coming soon, so some snowy pictures will follow.

More details, hmmm, lets see...

Well first three pictures are photographed from Prague Castle, which has been home of czech monarchs for more than 700 years. I was standing close to main entrance (there is guard castle, similiar to those red guys you have in London ). looking down to south, over the Vltava river. Most of historic Prague lies there.

Next two pictures are from my grandparents weekendhouse in Brdy mountains. These mountains (well highest is only 800 meters above see) lies about 40 km southeast from Prague. They have very nice and untouched nature with large deep forests (many ppl lost there already).

You may think its strange that there is relatively untouched nature so close to Prague, but that is becouse in this area was closed by russian occupants. They had missile silos in these forests, some of them with nuclear warheards, aimed to western imperialists and evil Americans. Of course, it was prohibited to go there or build anything there, it was prohibited to talk about that place at all. Now these silos are abandoned of course.

Next three pictures are from place where I live now, 4km beyond south Prague border. Its hilly area with Vltava river nearby, so I often see nice sceneries on the sky. Well maybe they used to be there too when I lived in Prague, but its hard to watch sky when you live in 1st floor of 11 floor building one next to each other. The one with road is in front of our house after rain, last one is dusk from our garden.

Heh and about the girl on wedding? In next second the groom will start to hunt rice in bride's neckline, lol I almost fell laughing when I saw that. It was best moment of that wedding . Btw, I was sitting on bride's side.

Hey Rob, thanks for taking the time to give that info.

My family (mainly my older Sister) have spoken for years now of us some day visiting Prague.
As is my Sister's way, she likes to find the history of places, and as such would want to visit many places around the capital and beyond.
I have no idea when this visit would take place, I just know it gets brought up in conversation, around Christmas time every year.
BTW We are all getting together at her house at Christmas for the first time this year, which should be good.

Looking forward to seeing more pics when you get a chance m8.

I don't have any pics worth of publishing yet, but I have some with SNOW. A lot of snow. That damn thing kept falling whole night, I just spent like 2 hours with cleaning a pavement, but when I finally finished it, other side was under snow again. Blah, I hate snow.

[LeeBe]

ah nice m8 we had a little snow last night but not much and it didnt stay long

you could build a great snowman with all that snow

[roba]

Lol LeeBe, I think I will send you some of my snow if you really miss it hehe. It was snowing here all day and night, so it was tough fight this morning. See pics, its like 30cm of snow (11.8110236 inches).

That poor car under snow is mine. Lol I thought I will save some money this winter and did not buy winter tires, so it looks like bus is gonna be my best friend for few next weeks heh.

[LeeBe]

aw I miss the snow

we used to have snow like that here years ago, I remember going to school with it upto my waist (even used to build igloos ) but thats global warming for you now its just rain

[Tempus]

Share the snow roba. Cornwall comes to a stop with 1CM of snow LoL.

[roba]

Hehe well snow is nice when you are kid, but when you are not, its only annoying. Roads almost unusable, every morning you have to remove new snow + its cold.

[Wayzor]

LOL I'm 40yo this year and I still love the snow!
We have a few inches atm and I would love more.

@ Lee. I identify exactly what you say regarding school years (including the igloo building!! Yeah!).
I used to live 3.5 miles from my school and had to walk there and back with my sister from the small village that we lived in. The village was in a valley with steep roads out.
Over the hill tops used to be incredible in the winters of my youth - often we had total closure to the village with six foot (2 metre) drifting snow.
LOL We had an outside toilet back then and believe it or not, we still had gas lighting when we first moved in! My step father wired it for electric in the first year though.

Ah! the good old times, they were hard I guess, but you knew and valued what you had back then, and wicked winter snow storms were a delight to us kids.

Thanks for the pics Rob.
