| | Last night, we got into Prague around 11:30, taking a bus from
Brno. It was an interesting experience... nobody spoke English
except for the young woman who was sitting in front of us, and she
happened to be from Kutna Hora, a city about an hour away from Prague
where we will be making a day trip to. In any case, the 2.5 hour
drive up was fun - the bus trip cost Mary and I 110 Kc each, which is
about $5.50. Included in that was a newspaper/magazine for you to keep,
a drink (cappuccino, tea, hot chocolate, water), and a movie during the
trip (My Big Fat Greek Wedding... also in Czech). Quite a
bargain, if you ask me.
This morning we woke up and walked around the Nove Mesto area of the
city. Armed with our 20th Century Architecture in Prague
guidebook, we barrelled through about 10 buildings in about 4
hours. Pretty nice, right? And that also included a pretty
hearty Czech lunch at a local pub/"restaurace" So, right now,
Mary's taking a quick nap, and I'm here updating the site. We've
got 3 nights in Prague, so we'll spread out our time here pretty
nicely. Then we head to Berlin for a night, and then head back to
London to get on our flight home to the States. Gotta go now,
another hostel guest wants on the computer. Na shledanou!
