Reflections from Praha

Praha 16th sep 2011

We were in Praha, for only 7 hours, it was a marathon, i really liked to visit Jesus boy of Praha, and also visit some places there. we had been traveling with Andres for 4 hours from Berlin. we missed a train and we had to wait 1 hour more for the next one, my friend had got cold and mornings in Berlin are quite cold, it was a difficult day, but i was expecting a lot of Praha, i was quite exited to go there. In that trip we met mr Larry, i've wrote some of this personage some post before.

when we arrived Praha, was quite complicated, because we had luggage not quite confortable to roaming around the city, and also we   had only 7 hours from 9 to 4, on the other hand,  Czech Republic uses another currency,  so we were sorting out other problems and i didn't have in my mind the idea of taking a shower, but my friend Andres can't stand be more than 12 hours without a good shower, so at the end we decided to split, while he was looking for a shower i was looking how to get to the Jesus church and also taking a good pictures of this beautiful city.

After 6 hours walking and shooting pics i met Andresa again,at the end of the day, i didn't have any "corona"(Czech money), i asked to andres some money, i was really starving, that was the first time that i ate in McDonalds, i was trying to avoid it for 15 days, but there was no other  option, i know it was sad but true.

Our train leaved at 4.30, we had no chance to buy more things to eat at night. our next destination were Venice. We had a small problem,in our tickets we saw that we had to make a connection in one place in the Swiss alps, but we had only 1 minute to do it, so we arrive and we hop down the train, our train was a bit late, exactly 5 minutes late, and we didn't see any train in the plataform, that couriosly was the same one where the train was, so we asked to a Train office in english, but the personn didn't speak a good english, so once again our best friend the spanish lenguage helped us, most people speak spanish in europe thats very good. Anyway, we asked and the train attendand told us that the train that we waited was the same that had been carrying us, but we have to move 5 wagons back, because in that route the train splits and one part goes to italy and the other one goes back to Munchen Geramany, that was very funny and stressfull
