Vesta Railway Hostel Prague

... mind puzzle day because there were an abnormal amount of people in hiking back packs trying to solve clues to move onto the next stop. It was really cool watching them. After we walked down from the castle in a vineyard, we went to a mall for a few hours looking for a few things. We didn’t find them, so we went back to our place and had supper next door. It was really good, and the best part about it was it was the shortest walk home from a restaurant ever. We ...

... slaves. Les vieux classiques du rock sont à l'honneur, et plutôt bien interprétés d'ailleurs ; autour de la place passent des cyclistes pour une compétition bizarre qui bloque les entrées et les sorties vers les rues voisines. Je repasse sur Na Prikope (la grande artère piétonnière commerciale) une dernière fois, et je visite une exposition de photographies en noir et blanc de l'époque communiste très intéressante, au coin de Wenceslas Square. Mais avec ...

... of adventure. Walking across the famous Charles Bridge, one saw painters, lovers, strollers and determined tourists on their way to the next church! <br><br>Shopping was superb and we visited the Moser store, enjoying the elaborately designed glassware, but deciding on an elegant simple decanter to commemorate our trip to<br>Prague.<br><br>One of our destinations was the Kampas Park Restaurant on ...

... was Thursday, I got to my hostel, met up with the girls for lunch and then took a long nap. My hostel is absolutely fabulous, best hostel so far, by far! I got into my room and met my roomies, 3 Ozzies and so cool. We have been hanging out all weekend. So the story with them is that they live in England and planned out this trip, bought a van and caravan and have been traveling for a while now all over. On Friday, we went and got their van and ...
