The good, the bad, and the ugly - part 1

Good:

- The architecture! Baroque, Gothic, Renaissance, Cubism - they are all here, coexisting beautifully.

- Interesting history. From nobility rule to communism to a republic.

- The beer! Very yummy.

Bad:

- Our hotel (where the team is staying) is not in the city centre. Hardly anything close by so not very interesting or convenient.

- The food has generally not been great. Lots of meat and a little hard to find veggie dishes.

Ugly:

- The service. Servers can be quite abrupt in tone and are not very friendly. A very few have been nice but most have a permanent scowl on their faces.

Makes you wonder what it is about the city/culture that makes them scowl...

I think the scowl is saved for tourists. They seem to be nice to each other.
