Maria & Brett's HUGE Trip 06-07-08-09-? ok, so the Socceroos lost in 'that' penalty against Italy; Adriatic summers aren't long enough (bliss!); and we found that you should never use the term "Eastern Bloc" when talking to a Czech (Central Europe, please).

In the Czech Republic, as with a lot of places, the egg symbolises life, fertility, spring... and when you receive a painted egg as a gift it's a bloody good gesture.

Easter - or 'Velikonoce' - in the centre of Prague. Painted eggs everywhere, even the trees were sprouting them.
