I didn't expect to stop here 🤔. The train left Zagreb at 7.05 this morning and should have arrived in Frankfurt at 19.40. Instead, it finished here, just 545km from my bed tonight!!

Interesting to walk around this area, given its history.

Fairly famous place. Wenceslas Square. Having a beer to celebrate that particular king.
Podróżnik How long are you staying there, we will be arriving in Prague tomorrow…🙈
Podróżnik What a pity I only just read your message 😪. I'm on a train and will be crossing the border into Slovakis in an hour or do. Then again - last night was spent in a bar called "Drunken Monkey" . Don't think my system would cope with another, but it would have been nice to meet up again (drinking cola?) 😀
Podróżnik Oh noo, thats unfortunate… Well, maybe a coffe would do next time.😂 If you ever find yourself in switzerland after the 21st, do tell us and we‘ll see if we can arrange something!😊

At least 15 years since I was first here. Have discovered (so far), neither Hungarian or Romanian trains have refreshments. First time on a local train here.

Some trains are easier to sleep on to get here than others. Now exploring.
Photos are 1) sleeper, 2) changing axles at the border at 5am

Plan A = Bucharest - Varna. Plan B = Bucharest to Sofia. Beautiful scenery on the way here.
Podróżnik I caught the ferry from Bari to Durres a few days ago. Are you doing the same?
Podróżnik We were catching the one to Split! Staying here for a few hours then we‘ll go on over to Bosnia. How are you doing?
Podróżnik Now on my way back toward Calais. Almost accidentally spent the night in Frankfurt's Red Light district 🤣☹️. You should be OK going to Split (do see the old town!) but if your route includes Kosovo and Serbia then expect lots of changes of plan.
