Recordist's notes

Ive recorded three workers breaking stiffed snow and ice in the walkway. You can here trams from afar and purr of pigeons. Cars almost don drive. Yesterday I had a walk in Karlov neighbourhood and below the Vyšehrad. The snow calamity caused, that there are almost not cars in the streets. And so the town got quiet beautifully and we can walk in the middle of the streets like the kings.
