03-Oct-2019 -- I attended the ESICM annual meeting in Berlin and I saved a few days for a touristic trip after the meeting. This time we choose to go by train to the wonderful city of Prague in Czech Republic. We had a chance to rent a car for one day on Oct 3rd to visit the area of the capital city. This was a perfect occasion to visit N50 E14 and N50 E15 on the same day.

N50 E15 is easy to reach by car as there is a paved road at less than 100 meters north of the point. The CP is located in a field and many former visitors could zero the point on foot. Unfortunately, the morning before our visit was rainy and the field was very muddy. As I had no boots available I stayed on the road shoulder to shoot our pictures, some 70 meters north of the point.

After that we headed to the very nice medieval city of Kutna Hora, a few kilometers west of the CP.
