Mature single travellers have their say!

This year One Traveller’s season of short breaks in Europe have once again all gone extremely smoothly. Their holidays in Prague and holidays in Poland selling better than ever. Their mature single travellers have been busy thoroughly enjoying all the fun that One Traveller’s holidays are based around and writing Ode’s in Krakow and poems in Prague. Here are beautifully written examples that were actually written by 2 very happy One Traveller guests:
WHAT TO DO IN PRAGUE
Dear tourist, now you really oughtta
See the Old Town and Jewish quarter.
Take a cruise on the Moldau if you have time.
Its Czech name is Vltava but nothing rhymes!
And have some beer.
Prague Castle also is a must
See the cathedral of Saint Vitus
And the Golden Lane with its quaint old shops.
You’ll walk until you’re fit to drop.
And have some dumplings and some beer.
Dine in Municipal House – art nouveau –
And after that by coach you’ll go
To see the fountains: such a sight,
Dancing with music and coloured lights.
And have some strudel and dumplings and beer.
Visit Karlovy Vary to cure all your ills.
The buildings are gorgeous, surrounded by hills.
You can taste the spa water (it’s not very nice!)
Or frequent the boutiques there if shopping’s your vice.
And have some goulash and strudel and dumplings and beer.
One last taste of culture – Gypsy dinner and dance
The music’s amazing and you’ll get the chance
To dance the mazurka if you’re not too shy
And remember, dear tourist, as you say goodbye
The sausage and goulash and strudel and dumplings and beer.

ODE TO IAN
Oh dear, Ian, whatever shall we do?
Our holiday's coming to an end and we'll be leaving you.
For your knowledge and experience, we're full of admiration,
Your Skoda jokes, your handy hints, your love of Lamination.
Alas, how dull our meals will be without the added thrill
Of knowing where the numbered card will
seat us at its will.
No more to marvel at your gift of linguistic expertise,
'Cos let's be honest, not many men
can handle 'smoked sheep's cheese'
With never a falter - you're number one
At repeating the words that slip off the tongue -
And what about the weather news? Without the daily text
from Mum's hot line for rain or shine
We'll never know what's next.
How very brave we'll have to be and thank each lucky star
That brought us this phenomenon
A man destined to go far
So thanks to Ian - Tour Manager -
The very best bar none
For all the care you've given us
but most of all - the FUN!
With Love and Best Wishes from your Cracking Krakow group - October 2009
