Euroagentur Hotel Junior Prague

... Sydney who had come to Prague after he met his Czech wife travelling in Costa Rica - now married 4mths and trying to master the very complicated language - 7 different elements ie female alive, female dead, male alive, male dead...he said talking to somone, was like playing chess, you had to think 5 moves ahead. Even more interesting than his uncanny resemblence to our NZ Berlin guide (even in names, Berlin guide was named was Mike and this dude was Mick), he had a degree in quantum science ...

... Hall, and St. Charles Bridge.<br><br>-Went back to Hostel Elf to get our bags, which we had stored there all day. On the way we stopped at the bus station to buy our bus ticket to Munich.<br><br>-Headed back to tram station to head towards our couch surfing host Adam's house. We got to the station he said to meet him at, and realized it was huge! (3 underground exits, 2 tram stops, and a bus ...

... is photobucket.com/j_sax87 Finally; Tuesday afternoon. Gary (the Canadian guy who now possesses my old jeans).. Hmmm, on a side note, I currently feel like the offspring of Carmen San Diego and Where's Wally. Carmen San Diego... becaused, well I'm changing cities every few days. And I'm pretty sure Interpol are after me for robbing that bank in Paris.. And Where's Wally because I've started lightening my load. Intentionally of course, they were jeans I hardly wear at home, let ...

... stop along our trip. Not sure why, but I love Poland. We went to Auschwitz early in the morning when our night train arrived. To get to Auschwitz from Krakow, a 1.5 hour bus trip is necessary. luckily there were two seats for us, otherwise we would have had to stand the whole way, as some did. The return trip to Auschwitz was on a city bus that stopped in every little Polish town along the way. It was a very long bus ride, but I enjoyed it because I saw ...

... the bridge and the Prague Castle. We spent the rest of the afternoon eating, shopping and going to my favorite cafe, Cafe Ebel. The next day we did the crazy day trip to Berlin, which is documented on the next entry. The following day, which was their last full day in Prague, we did one more climb. This time it was up the "Eiffel Tower" look-a-like, the Petrin Observation Tower. We took the easy way up ...

... cooking. But in Moscow, that meant standing in lines to point at the food you wanted in the shop, and then standing in another line to pay for it and then standing in another line to get it. Winter was coming on and I remember one time they said they had no potatoes yet I noticed a big pile of potatoes in the back room. I pointed to them and someone who spoke English told me that they were no good because they had frozen ...

... for tonight, and it was less than 20 euro. We were planning on going to a pub tonight but after hitting the bottle of red, the apartment is looking mighty friendly!!! Although the nearest pub is less than a meter from the entrance to the apartments so we can go if we feel like it (not sure we want to get out of our pj's though)<br><br>We are planning to go out early in the morning or late at night to Charles Bridge to get some photos of the bridge and the city in the ...

Prague was a little ridiculous. Myself and four friends - Lara, Terri, Jas, and Robin - managed to meet up. Despite the weekend going off quite different than I had expected, it flew by far too quickly for me. It was great to see people I've known for longer than 48 hours; especially Robin (nicknamed "like the wind" by the rest of us for his ability to vanish and appear as if from nowhere), who I haven't seen in well over a ...

... i'd need to pick up my sax from London before i went. So it was done. Booked a ticket to London from Linz in Austria for the 5th July, and all was set in place. Checked in to the 'Travellers Hostel' on the middle island on the Vltava river, a substantially nicer looking place from the exterior, though not totally without charm. Basically, this was the uber opposite of the lavish, clean Miss Sophies, and i was now in a dorm room with thirty ...

... to relax was a treat. The days followed with long walks taking as much in as possible. On our year long budget, Prague would not be an extravagant stop. But just enjoying the long walks and pleasant sights kept me happy. I don't think that I can say the same for our companion Brian. By the second day I think that he was tired of walking. Actually, by the time that we reached Trier I think that he may have been tired of ...
