It seems ready for ski...

Ski lift + 25ft snow = tow rope.

There are other ones where the rope is actually below the snow level!

Looks like an avalanche, without the avalanche! I imagine there will be some serious flooding in the spring.

That depends if it is a rapid thaw or a progressive thaw.

True, but still that's a massive amount of water.

I saw the title and thought, I'm at the age where that's true.

As those who follow my posts here may know, my Apprenticeship will come to an End by this summer.
My class has now decided to spend a weekend in Prague, the capital of Czech. No one of us has been there yet, so has anyone of you Guys ever been there? Favorite places, Bars, Places to avoid?

Its all good.
I was there so long ago I expect any place I could recommend has changed but as a whole, its a great visit. If you can take a train to Czesky-Krumlov, (yeah, I just KLNOW that's spelt wrong) if possible, its even more stunning.

I spent a weekend in Prague I think. There was Absinthe involved and some details are a bit hazy, but I'm pretty sure it was Prague.

Sounds just about right. It's easy to become absinthminded there!

I was there a few years ago, I really liked it.. At day and with good weather its really worth going to the castle, where you will have an incredible view. The city itself is very nice also, lots of cool old buildings for sightseeing.
And at night Prague turns into one big party location, there should be enough bars, restaurants and clubs for every taste. There are also a lot of Jazz clubs there (dont ask me why) if you are into that. Czech people in general are very friendly and welcoming.
I won’t not use no double negatives.

Was there ten years ago for new years.
Our hotel booking was f***ed up and all hotels were full so we ended up in a shack smelling of garlic, cigarette smoke on steroids and very strong detergents.
We still had a great time though as everything could only get better after that.
Can't really say where to go as my memories are a bit fuzzy, but I can tell you that the quality of the hotels vary much more than the price, so do check them on tripadvisor or something similar before booking.
Oh, I should add that messing up the booking was our own fault, and the people are really friendly and helpful.

I've been there last September with my family (we try to visit a city together once a year)
The castle is definitly worth going to. Also the tower at the old town square provides a really impressive view over the whole city.
Then there are really lots of small pubs and bars with nice beer (Pilsner Urquell is probably the most famous one from the Czech Rep.) And if you walk by some bakers making some sweet bread wrapped around a bar: try it! It's really delicious
We were mostly in Old Town though (2 nights aren't that much, and the "girls" (mostly my sister ) "needed" to go shopping too) and didn't go clubbing or something like that, so I can't really give advice on that but I might know a few people from Vienna that occasionlaly go to Prague for that purpose. If you like I could try to gather some more info in that regard
