Let's go! ... And we went!
We solved quickly the road (by bus) and the accommodation (nice apartment via Le Papillon Hostel on the internet).
To go away and forget everything it's like a deep air breath. New place, new faces, new air, new life, new memories...
An ex-communist country where time is important, for us it was too; just two full days to enjoy this experience.
Tic-tac, Tic-tac... The Jewish Clock (which turns opposite), the Astrological Clock or the "Red" Clock... they are all ticking, just to remember you that time is passing by and that the phrase "Time is on my side" isn't always true. Still, we just lay on a bench near the Vltava River, the boats are floating, the yellow leaves are flying and you feel like in a time capsule with your mind free, far away from the real world from back home.
Things good to know: if you another currency than euro, go to Prague with its national currency, otherwise you loose twice... and the exchange houses have commission; beer everywhere, obviously a lot cheaper in the supermarket; Prague's cuisine has a lot of meat, but vegetarians won't be disappointed either, even though the contrary is said. Besides that... we had fun in Prague!
Next stop will be Vienna (Austria) from 27th December 2007 to 2nd January 2008.
