Up early to make sure our washed clothes were now dry and drove to the Hauptbahnhof to say 'tschuß!' Although Dad was a little more interested in free wifi at the station...
Archie and I got on an extremely busy train towards Prague. We realised we'd been really lucky with not booking any reservations so far and made the mistake of not booking a seat on this 5 hour journey one!! Ended up having a snoozle on the carriageway floor, using my backpack as a handy pillow. We sat down for maybe 5 minutes while someone got up from their seats and chatted to a woman and her son who were all the way from Dubai!
Once in Prague (or Praha as they call it) it was up to me to show Archie the way to our next hostel (as I'd booked it). BUT because I booked it in Germany, the already brief directions became even more miffing. My German isn't 100% but I was pretty sure it said to go right, over the park and carry on but Archie trusted a Czech guys opinion on going left to head for a subway. Now on this certain day Prague had to be the most ridiculously humid place on earth, which explained the amount of rain the following day haha! And after a lot of pointless walking,
you guessed it,we got lost.
A nice surprise, when we did get there following MY directions, was to find we had a room all to ourselves! :) Starving and ready to get out we went for dinner at an American diner called James Deans and stuffed our faces in the country that is supposed to have the 'worst diet' due to 'greasy and heavy food'. Full up to our bellies we hobbled back to sleep off the starch and after being amazed at the amount of cannabis vodka, duff beer and original 'budweiser' we hit the hay x
