Brno

Tressa and I made a quick day trip from Vienna up to Brno in the Czech Republic on August 17th to study Dolni Vestonice III and Kulna along with some other fossils and casts. For lunch, our host, Jana Klicova, took us out to a great restaurant located in the celler of a building built in the in middle ages. I knew the Czechs liked their beer, but this place took it to a new level. The tables actually had a tap for each person with a meter that recorded how much each person poured themselves. I had hoped to wander around after I finished work at the Moravske Zemske Museum and find Mendel's pea garden, but unfortunatley as soon as we left the museum a torrential downpour began. We rushed back to the train station to get the equipment out of the rain and decided just to cut our losses and catch an earlier train back to Vienna.
