Acc-Nifos Parkhotel Praha Prague

... with the view of all of Prague is open. There&#8217;s just no one here. This is one of those things I can&#8217;t see happening back in North America. We&#8217;re going with it for now. Nat&#8217;s walking around doing her videotaping, I brought out the laptop to check the wifi connection and write this. <br><br>13:20<br><br>Comforting thought from Natalie: "I feel like I&#8217;m in one of ...

... apparently) was quite pretty, and the castle itself is a sight, as is the view from the gates onto the city. I managed to get a photo next to one of the guards - the poor guy must get so sick of silly tourists posing next to him as he tries to keep a straight face! We made our way back to the hotel, and decided to be very lazy and order room service for dinner!! Complete with a couple of Czech Budweisers of course :) The train we caught to ...

... all our water out before going to sleep. Anyway, thank Ivan for us Kim, and it was great to see you. After Prague we went back to Amsterdam for a night and came home. Both ways we had our own rows to sleep, ultra-handy. We had a blast and I can't belive we get to go to Playa Del Carmen for the weekend, God knows Leah worked hard for it with her company, what timing! Thanks so much for checking us out, look for more next week.

... in Aug 1938 as part of Hitler's ultimate solution for disposing of Europe's Jewish Population. The prisoners were forced to work 12 hour days to build the camp; the work was backbreaking and involved the prisoners carrying blocks weighing up to 100kg up what were known as the stairs of death, from the quarry to the worksite. Prisoners were fed only five spoons of food, once every three days. As prisoners became too ill or weak to work they were generally shot. The SS officers ...

... some photos of the wedding we are going to and I will post them up on my personal blog to show the world. I have never stayed in a hotel in Prague so far, this time we will. I want a bit of space and to treat our break as a holiday - we go there so often that we normally stay with friends - but everyone will be going to the wedding and we all need a bit of space - well I think we all do.

Prague, Czech Republic (Aug 29 - Sept 03) After traveling alone for a while it was nice to meet up with a fellow traveller in Prague and enjoy the city with someone. Prague is a little bit farther along in it's transition to Western Europe than Budapest and therefore a little less cultural. The architecture in Prague though was absolutely amazing (especially the St. Vitus Cathedral &amp; the Charles Bridge).

... in the architecture and in the winding narrow streets, you feel like you are on a movie set. A movie set with thousands of tourists...mostly snobby American college kids who only want to party... this can really ruin the experience, especially with all the pickpockets and drug dealers. Prague is a haven for crime, I know this first hand since a group of us was followed back to our hotel twice. It is very uncomfortable to always have to be watching your back and your purse ...

... just wanted to enjoy it cuase we all knew we would never be in the same situation again. The final night with all the kids was friday night, but it was also the final night with all the staff as all the german staff and english teachers were leaving on the saturday. So after our celbrations with the kids at our "Hollywood" Themed disco the staff celbrated on. I did feel half sorry for the 3 staff that were sadly on duty, oh well better them then me, haha! It ...

Hey all, We're finally updating again and since we realize that we won't nearly cover all the places we've visited before we come home at the end of the month we're probably going to have some sort of party in early July. Welcome to Prague where they love hockey (but NOT Canadian hockey!). Alex sez..... Between Berlin and Prague we jumped off the train in Dresden for some lunch. We only spent a couple of hours mostly just looking for somewhere to ...

... to the hotel for a shower. I felt like a new man. The Northern contingent of Staggers had arrived by that time and I hooked up with Sean and co for a few beers and pool and excitedly awaited the London contingent who were coming a bit later. This contingent included Glenn who I hadn't seen for 2 years and who would be my travelling companion for the next 6 weeks in England and Peru. Unfortunately, my pool ...
