Return
I didRadvaň-Ruzyně route4 hours and 7 minutes...and even managed to pickup two Hungarian hitchhikersBrno. I admit my bladder made my foot heavier towardsendthis trip. To compare - Google says that it should take 5h 8m.
 
The two hitchhiking girls were really surprised how fast I kicked them of car at the airport (as they were not receiving the aforementioned urgent message of my internal organ).
