Hostel 5 Plzenska Prague

... We then had a <br>beer in my room that we had bought when we bought breakfast supplies. <br>The beers were 0.5L and cost 10 koruna (60 cents). After our beers we <br>headed back to our favourite spot for dinner. I had a curry chicken <br>plate with garlic potatoes and a beer. It was amazing. Denis had pasta <br>with a Greek salad. After dinner we headed back to the hostel and <br>shared our pictures we had taken ...

... 700 years old. Seeing the art work of children that were incarcerated at Terezin Concentration Camp caused us both to pause in reflection. We had a beer at Franz Kafka Cafe and then walked to the Municipal House just in time to get on the 5:00 tour in English. The tour guide was a robust Czech woman who took no guff from anyone. We were told to purchase a pass for picture-taking which we wore ...

... chores. A big, brutal and unfortunately dim witted help, it eventually went on the rampage and had to be destroyed by the quick thinking Rabbi. But not before performing heroic rescues of near-baptized Jewish children and saving the ghetto more than once from the rampaging hordes. Rabbi Loew laid the Golem to rest in the roof of Prague's Old-New Synagogue. Apparently inquisitive rabbis have returned from the loft white faced and a unable to speak. What they saw may never be ...

... For a change we had more space than we knew what to do with and it reminded us of how much we missed having a home. We thought seven days in Prague might be a little long, but we couldn't have been more wrong. Our time in this amazing city flew by and we wished we had another seven days by the time we had to leave. For us the beauty of Prague was not only visiting the major attractions but exploring the back streets; abandoning the map and just ...

... After dinner we stopped in a bar called the Beer factory, where people can pour their own beer and it is kept track of on a big scoreboard at the bar....harder to explain than it really is. We made it an early night because we wanted to see a lot of sights the next day, which we did. Yesterday we probably walked 5 miles around the city and went to some museums, the Charles bridge, St. Nicholas church, the Prague castle, and then ...

... weather as well as missing home, family and friends( which had to happen as I really have not been down since being away) so I rang mum and dad. It was really good to talk to them and they cheered me up alot ,I dont think they realise how much, thanks Mum & Dad! Anyway I had decided to fly to Portugal the next day but there were no flights for 2 days so resigned myself to hunting out somewhere to watch the Rugby as that always cheers me up. In the hostel I found a ...

... The exhibit was very good, except that many of the pieces were prints. Oh, well. Following the museum, we strolled around the city and then went for our last Czech meal. I had potato pancakes with chicken and spinach, which was very good. Overall, I really enjoyed my trip to Prague. It was a unique trip that I know will be unlike anything else I ever do in Europe. Luckily, though, we are about to arrive in Vienna. After only a weekend I began to miss my new home.

... a couple of months ago. The last couple of days were cloudy and there was one light shower to break the run of fine weather we had since 8 Sep, but it was only a few minutes. Today was brilliantly clear, sunny and blue skies, so we even went back to some places to get better pictures! Tomorrow it is a train trip to Vienna, so next update from there. We are there for 6 nights and probably will not have free and good internet access like in this place in Prague. Cheers Phil and Cathy

... sme mali ku vsetkym pamiatkam starej Prahy iba naskok. Dali sme si taky zakladny "povinny" okruh Prahou, takze sme videli Vaclavske namestie, Orloj a staromestne namestie, hrad a jeho zahrady, malu stranu, Karlov most a vsetko co k tomu parti. Vecer sme uz vsak boli uchodeni a pripraveni zdolat poslednych 360km nasej cesty: Dialnicu D1 do Bratislavy. Do Blavy sme prisli presne o 21:00. Boli sme ...
