We were expecting Eastern Europe to be old and medieval, however even the old seems to fit very nicely into the modern ... but i guess being modern is something that no society can avoid even if they tried... actually we have noticed that time only seems to freeze for those who leave a place.. the scotts in Canada, for example, remember a Scotland from the time they left.. those that stay behind continue to change and grow and of course marvel at how more Scottish those in Canada seem than they do...
Anyway while admiring the high tech society around us in Prague we see these guys carrying nimbus 100's right out of Harry Potter and then we see this guy carrying a pitch fork.... We tried to follow him but he lost us him in the crowd... oh well it would have been interesting to see a mob trying to drive Frankenstein out of a castle or capture a few witches like we had been expecting to be doing... oh well instead we will head off to Starbuck for some modern Brew....
