Greetings from Prague! We arrived yesterday after another long train journey (although the views along the way of southern germany we're very nice!) So far I've seen none of the sites what so ever except the inside of a tesco and some of the local beer selling places... I'm sure we'll get round to seeing the sites once everyones recouperated a b...

I am in Prague, Czech Republic right now - Day 2. It's my second time here. I was here 10 years ago when I did my first backpacking trip right after graduating from University. It is still a beautiful city. Probably one of the nicest in all of Europe. The train ride from Berlin was fantastic. I had to remind myself to take my nose out of my book...

hello to anyone who is reading this. we arrived in Prague to our hostel with no problems apart from understanding Czech public transport. after trying to make out Czech words on the travel board and trying to get some money we finally got to our hostel via the combined methods of bus and metro. our hostel, clown and bard hostel, is really good. ...

last couple of days in prague were quite good. after sightseeing we went clubbing in the centre of prague - near charles bridge. 5 floors with different music on each floor. even though we were just the two of us we still had a good time and were able to make our way back to the hostel in the dark by foot!!! on sat we went to the communist museu...

Arrived at Prague, quite tired and went to our hostel- the Clown and Bard, very much a party hostel and naturally we proceeded to drink at about 5pm in the built in bar (the barmaid said Poveys train looked like it had been drawn by a five year old, whereas she said mine looked like it had been drawn by a 15 year old-haha! one-nil, ish), I got t...

This is just a quick entry for Prague (Praha) before getting on to Vienna. Prague is Beatiful, expect for the area around the Clown and Bard Hostel, which is run down as all hell and scares and depresses you at the same time. This is where I stayed! I had planned to spend a while here but pulled out early because I didnt like staying in such a *...

I'll finish the Santorini stuff before I get to Prague... The first full day we had there was quite eventful. We rented a 4-wheeler for 24 hours and went all around the island. First, the red sand beaches. Then we kinda got lost for a while, but made our way to the biggest city, Fira, for lunch, and proceeded to get ripped off. Of course we shou...

I try to make cheesy titles to these entries, and I think I've outdone myself on this one. I am taking advantage of the free internet that the hostel offers and writing another entry in Prague. Today we actually went on the 5 hour walking tour (it was a bargain) and saw all of the main attractions in the city. Went to new town, which is not real...

I arrived in Prage on a dodgy night train that kept me up all night. Tired and weary I slowly made my way to the Clown and Bard hostel. It was a slow process because the street was hard to find and directions were difficult to obtain due to the language barrie. However I finally found a english speaker to give me directions. I checked into a 32 ...

prague was awesome. Stayed at the Clown and Bard Hostel, which is the best in Europe! The food is cheap all over the city and so is the beer.We walked the Charles Bridge and touched the little guy who's being held over the side (on a plaque that is you touch it you get good luck) and then saw the cool clock in the town square. I know i did quite...

Thawing out after a freezing few days in Prague.

Well, we rolled into Prague this morning on a night train from Munich's Hauptbahnhof. The weather, as ever, is dazzlingly nice. I thought there we'd have to do a long trek from Holesovice station - the neglected Communist-era rail hub in the north - but our train actually continued all the way to the main central station. I guess the information...

Thank god that for the next month at least all my long distance travel will be done by plane. I knew I was in for another tough ride on my way here from Lithuania yesterday and the main 20 hour leg wasn't actually that bad although of course I didn't manage to get any decent sleep. I was however treated to some very pretty views in the morning w...
