Passionate for Pivo!
Well it's Wednesday and I'm of course procrastinating packing as I leave tomorrow for Regina for the Christmas break. We're currently sitting around, talking about what Czechs love most - beer - also known as pivo in Czech. They're not just passionate about beer but they perfer it in the purist form possible. If not directly from the brewery tank, then from the tap. Case in point...it's not uncommon to go down to your local pub with plastic pop bottle in hand, requesting a fill of whatever they have on tap. We've seen teammates do this on many occassions and thought we would try it out tonight. "When in Rome" I guess... make that Prague? So Chelsa went down to our local pub - or more like a small one room pub that is underneath our building of flats - and proceeded to fill a 1.5L water bottle with Gambrinus...so Czech. Well the beer was pretty good, slightly flat, (even though I'm not a huge beer drinker) but when you pay $3 for a litre and half of beer you can't really complain!
