... so that I can compare them to the ones in Sweden. Well I think that these meat balls were a bit drier but they tasted a bit better. The Ikea meat balls seemed like they were frozen meat balls but came with very good sauce.<br><br>We then walked over Charles bridge, into the main square to have a sausage, to a beer garden and then to the main street. After a wonderful meal of KFC, we headed back to the square and the bridge to see Prague at night. Poor Kevin ...

... lunch outside in Melk, which is on the Danube River. We wandered about the coast for a while until we found the bike rental "office", which was just a shed in a field. But after that, we got going and biked 38Km through about 10 lovely little towns in the Wachau region. The bike road goes between very steep vineyard hills and the river, and is one of the most scenic roads we have ever seen. We did not get ...

Dear Prague, I can't believe that you would do this to me. I am tired. I am grumpy. I just rolled off the sketchiest night-train EVER. And what do you do? You almost make me cry with your darkness, your coldness, and your lack of correct change. Really, I don't think I can go on like this. Grrrrrrrrrr... Friends off! Your ex-friend, Pearl

... queuing up and paying to see these places. Coincidently all the expensive European cars in Prague seemed to be parked up this end of town. Prague Plus Hostel is a fantastic place to stay. The rooms are large and have private bathrooms and full sized lockers, there's a huge bar and restaurant, breakfast is included plus free WIFI or free use of computers with internet access and there's even a pool and sauna. The following day we were back on our bus and headed for Berlin, Germany.

... New York City's Broadway, where each bar is supported by five forty-story high rises. There are literally four bars per block, block after block. When I went to do laundry at one of the two self-service laundromats in the city, it had an attached bar. Put the clothes in the washer, have a $1.20 22-ounce beer. Dryer, same. Throw them in the bag and walk two miles back to the apartment. Second are the casinos. They range from ...

... in to emergency and the three of us proceeded to wait for the next 3 hours. The hospitals here are very old and dreary. I think they may have been last updated in the 50's. The amount of cobwebs and holes in the walls were unbelievable. Dad had an EKG, an ultrasound and X-ray(he was pretty sure it was a prototype machine). After all this they could not find anything wrong. We arrived back ...

... made enquiries as to where we could visit factories. I was told that they were way up north and was given two names near the German border. We eventually entered the town square. It was huge with Tyn church at one end, Hotel de Ville at the other (with astronomical clock attached) and a large open space part of which was taken up by souvenir stalls...interesting souvenirs. The ubiquitous pavement cafes were taking up much of the rest of the square. I decided that I liked this ...

Prague Prague at first glance(first evening when we came to Prague) left something sombre impessions. The reasons were: some buildings in socialistic styles(I hate this soviet style!), dark Jewish block,many strange enterteinment places, I hadn't a map and couldn't orient myself:-),many wild tourists. The first evening I liked only Staromestka Square. But I was very delighted from this square ...

... great entertainment for the night. The train ride out of Prague was the most confusing yet. Our Eurail guide let us to believe it would be direct to Munich but it was anything but. It went more like train-bus-train-train with no real instruction, just herding. Luckily a majority of the passengers were backpackers too who spoke english since most of the Czech conductors didn't. Anyways, moving on to bigger and better beers.... Cheers, Alex and Keiko

... to Munich once ... why? E: It take how long by car? M: No idea ... maybe three hours ... can't say for sure E: (lots of mumbling under his breath in Italian) Silence. The next thing I observed him getting his European road map out, fumbling with the pages and pondering something combined with muttering something else yet again in Italian. Then I hear ... E: I want to go somewhere different to eat dinner but if I drive three hours to Stuttgart then I ...
