    Prague Day 1

    June 12, 2016 in Czech Republic ⋅ ⛅ 16 °C

    Set off from Bad Schandau by crossing the river Elbe, then up to the train station & waited for train. Margaret & John Fegent were in the same carriage behind us.Arrived at Praha & made our way to Rybna street, had to ring Eva, the owner to let us in.She was very nice.We tried to meet M & J,but it took longer to find the place( we thought it was wrong due to street front- but it was correct). So we didn't see them, it also bucketted down .After we had a coffee each (150 krona). The currency is crazy, a pizza costs 200 k,for instance, my pork ribs were cheap in comparison at 310k.We walked to the famous King Charles bridge, it wasn't as crowded as expected. There were many street side sellers there with their wares such as wooden jewellery, artists, cartoonists and beggars who leant forward in semi prostate form.It looked like the clouds were going to explode & let forth so we went into a nearby restaurant for dinner. On way back to the flat we called in at the supermarket for groceries.Read more
