9. No fricken clue what "At the Patch" is.
All I know in Czech is "Tmave Pivo". As in "S'cuse me...speak English? No? Good. Where is the nearest Tmave Pivo, dude?"

10. Lots of Czech bars and Hotels start with "U" meaning "At the..."
Flek is Czech for patch, although it probably means garden. The u is at the end of Flek=Fleku because it has to go there when you have the "U" in the name!

Pivo is beer, and U Flecku is a pivovar!

12. Fantastic!
Keep notes on any good trip tips and I'll do the same. I have already been told to carry kleenex packs along to all the bathrooms in these countries because TP often isn't available. :)

16. Yeah, and be sure to have some change to pay for the public
restrooms. Sometimes there's no fee, but you're supposed to leave a tip!
