Plzen - (Pilsen)

Plzen , a set on Flickr.

As we work our way through European history we decided to visit another main city in the Czech Republic. After several days of war history we decided for something a little more light hearted and visited the Pilsen Brewery Museum. A few weeks ago a tour guide told us that the Czech's like to conserve water and drink beer instead! Plzen is the home of Pilsner Urquell beer which is very common here. Ever since we got to the Czech Republic we have laughed about the cost of beer ... it is cheaper than coke, water or a juice box for the kids!! The Brewery Museum was interesting and as you can see the kids could touch everything which they were pretty happy about. We were also going to visit the first underground but the minimum age was 3 and lets just face it Leo barely passes for two :+) Nana & Grandad we had to change how the photos got put on the blog because I used up all space on Photobucket. If you click on a picture it will come up bigger and you can then flick through the set with the next button. Let me know if you have any problems.
