Praha 2009

Prague is always worth a trip! Although I was there four times my mother and my sister were not. For Mother's Day in May we decided to present our mum with a trip to Prague after the summer. Now it's been time.

I booked a 3-star-hotel on the internet on a very favourable price. We went there by car and thanks to my sisters GPS system it wasn't a problem to find the hotel.

Prague is really beautiful and we had also luck with the weather conditions. We visited the main tourist destinations. Unfortunately the castle was so crowded and we did not want to stand in queue for three hours. So we only walked through and did not went in. We also had not luck with the Jewish quarter. Due to the Jewish new year celebrations the synagogues and the cemetery weren't open.

On Sundy afternoon we went back home. It's been a great trip although the GPS system sent us through the middle of the woods on our way back to Austria. You should always take a map with you and not rely on the navigation system!
