Flight to Amsterdam delayed - on board but haven’t left yet already 1-1/2 hrs delay. Now I’m worried about continuing flight to Prague
ViaggiatoreInternational flights usually arrive early, they schedule extra time so they won't be late so much. You'll probably make up 30-45 minutes on the flight.
On the return flight from our riverboat trip we had to fly into Amsterdam for our fight home. What a run from one area to another. Just relax. You are not in charge - you have to take what you get. The trip will be wonderful. Getting there doesn't count. [Myra Fisher]

Beyond words to see this in person — it’s in the yellow building that almost looks like a church😢
"Man's inhumanity to man". It makes me weep to see replicas of the creamatorium after reading many books about the atrocities that happened during those horrid years. Hopefully, similar history WILL NEVER be repeated. [Berniece R.]

ViaggiatoreLooks like it was a warm day for the walk. The buildings hold so much history. Did you see much difference between the Czech Republic and Slovakia? Or was the time there too short to make comparisons of any kind?
