Day 8- On the way to Prague

Long day on the bus today, so not much to tell. We left Krakow a little after eight and began our epic (400+) mile drive to Prague in the Czech Republic. We stopped twice for bathroom/snack breaks and had a group lunch about an hour over the border into CR. There was some fear that we were eating goose because that was the special of the day, but it turned out to be a combo chicken and pork dish. Our restaurant was rustic and had lots of animal pelts everywhere, including on every seat! We got into Prague a little before 5 and got dropped off in the city of center. It was a little busier then the other city centers we have been to (but that might be because it is Saturday) so we will be keeping the group together more. We did a little shopping before dinner in the city and then headed out to check into our last hotel. Tomorrow we have a tour of the Prague castle area, a boat lunch cruise, a short tour of the Jewish sector of the city, followed by our last bit of shopping and final dinner. I will update one more time with pictures before we head home.

  1. Wow...so you're finally in Prague. Kind of hard to believe and yet not. I'm sure most of you are ready to see your families again but keep in mind that tomorrow is it; so take it all in. Think about the smells, the sounds, the sights and the people as you stroll along one last time, as you enter one last shop and as you eat in one last restaurant. Most of you will never go there again so bring it all back with you, so that you always have it :)

    Abbey- Just needed to say (one more time) we miss you and we love you; it was so great to finally speak with you. It was so strange because it sounded like you were just down the road :). See you soon.
