    I will be coming over to the Czech Republic in July for 2 weeks to help teach at an English language camp...which credit cards are most easily and widely used in Prague please?

    I believe it's equal - mostly both, if place accepts card.

    And ATMs are everywhere.

    Could you tell me what the weather is typically like in July as we will be outside Prague teaching at an English Camp then? I would appreciate you telling me in Fahrenheit if at all possible because I am unfamiliar with the Celsius scale...sorry!

    I would like to know how the middle aged women dress for casual camp type activities over there...are shorts acceptable attire? Should they be knee length or is it expected of women that age to wear dressier clothing in public?

    In July the sommer is in its high period here (continental climate), but nights might be already cold (lowest about 8 C = 46 F). Ususally the weather is sonny, but rains or storms may happen (umbrella recommended :) ).
    Mean air temperatures are about 19 Celsius (66 F) with maxima about 35 C (98 F).
    In the land the weather is milder, and in the mountains (over 1000 m) by 5-10 C (9-18 F) colder.
    The weather this year is not very typical, the April is hot and dry (opposite to normal wet and colder). It's difficult to say what will happen in July.


    Temp in Fahrenheit = 32 + 9/5 * Temp in Celsius

    People have no problem in Czech society with legs exposing. :)

    I didn't seen many woman in shorts though. Short skirts yes, but shorts are rare. I don't know why - maybe it's fashion thing? But for example here - http://www.bonprix.cz/bc/shop.htm?cat=1.10.368 - they offer many types of shorts. So I'm probably wrong.

    Anyway - I believe, that you will have no problems in shorts at camping.

    That's great and helpful...I like to wear the longer shorts and i will be teaching English to teens over there when I go and it'll be a camp setting and quite informal for the most part.
