Hoilday to Prague, Bratislava and Budapest
15/5/04
Prague
We got to the airport to find we wear early and nothing was open. Plus their was no where to sit. We ended up taking over Burger King’s. When we finally got the bags checked in and our boarding cards, we found out the reason we could not see our flight details, on any of the departure boards. Our plane took off at 8:50. Not 7:25 like we had been told.
The flight was okay, they gave us mushroom sandwiches, not nice. Prague airport is really nice, way better than Heathrow.
We where met by our taxi driver. He had a great car, leather seats. We got a little tour of Prague as we drove in.
The hotel seems nice, smelt of pot at first and the room safe is broken, that should be fixed on Monday.
Mum and Patrick are sleeping now.
At 3pm we went back out to get the rail tickets to Bratislava and a 7-day travel pass. We walked down the road to Hlavinadrazl train station. The tickets to Bratislava cost about £15 and the travel pass £7.
We got the wrong tram to Wenceslas square and had to walk back though the Stare Mesto. By which time it had started to rain. We walked pass the power Tower, the “Prasna Brana” and the “Obencni Dim” at the Republiky Nam. There are some really nice buildings. But the rain was not letting up and we where hungry and tried.
So, we headed back to the hotel and had Chinese food.
Then we sat down to watch the Eurovision Song contest. Patrick fell a sleep the during the show before the start of the contest, I made it three-quarters of the way though the Eurovision Song contest. Germany did not win.
