Chili Hostel Prague

... very yum). The meal was completed with a couple of drinks, for a whopping total of 600 Krownes (only $40 Aussie bucks, and we had entree!!!!). If only we could eat this well back home for that sort of money!<br><br> Incidentally, both of us were unaccustomed to being surrounded by smokers during our meal, you can smoke anywhere in Czech and it made things interesting... We must say, we did miss the smoke free eating environment of Aus, even if it is a little more uptight.<br><br> Anywho ...

... Town and be really dissapointed (it was hilarious watching everyone mope away). We got the tip from our tour guide that it was really lame and the best thing to do was watch the people who were watching the clock strike a particular hour.<br><br>-Went to Jewish district and shopped around.<br><br>-Went back to New Town and found a cool little market. After the market we went into a stone fired pizza restaurant we found. The pizzas were amazing! Much ...

... and into the castle. Reason and logic won out though, if my athleticism wasn't up to scratch it was a long and bumpy roll down a steep hill to the road below. And if I was caught, I didn't think the Czech authorities would take well to finding an Aussie tourist wandering around the former site of the Bohemian crown jewels (and apparently the chapel has hundreds of precious stones inlaid in the walls too). I headed back into town, and caught the next train back to Prague, getting ...

... or wider, I don't remember) in Russia. This was done so that anyone who went to war with them wouldn't be able to use their tracks for invasion. We finally got to Moscow and the next thing that amazed me was that we were so far underground and had to go up these seemingly ancient escalators. And at the top of every one was a mean looking woman who was yelling something at everyone. We finally figured out, she was ...

... Prague was a 4 hour tour which took us around to the major sites and helped us become more familiar with Prague's vibrant history. We had a wonderful time visiting the Old Town Square, the Jewish Quarter, Charles Bridge, the Astronomical Clock, the Executioners Pub and more! <br><br>Our last stop was the Castle Complex, and wow is the best word to describe it. Trent and I are determined to go back tomorrow to spend more time there especially at ST Vitus Cathedral which is ...

Hello All! Well we survived Oktoberfest in Germany - it was such a blast!!! I'm sure Oktoberfest in La Crosse was a blast also, but I would highly recommend getting to the real Oktoberfest - huge beers, lots of lederhosen, lots of sausages and sauerkraut,lots of happy, drunk German locals singing and dancing - we have some good pictures to ...

... as i slurped down a Yoplait without a spoon. The other day i walked along one of the bridges over the Vltava river and spotted a pretty cool looking hostel in an old heritage building perched right in the guts of one of the Prague islands. I immediately investigated accomodation for a nights sleep tonight, my one last experience of Prague in the nighttime. Well, the day was fairly uneventful in terms of activity and 'doin stuff', i pretty ...

I won't dwell too long on Prague. The first thing that everyone says about it is "Prague is so beautiful," then second "and it's so cheap too." The beauty I won't deny as for the prices, besides groceries, it is not cheap anymore. I was there in 1996 after traveling around Europe with a euro rail pass that I won, on a shoestring students budget. Bread cheese and free breakfasts at hostels had been my staple. For the same price ...
