Well this will be my shortest ever post!
Today we did very little, except Mike walked to Charles bridge & checked out a couple of hobby shops, then had a brief stop at Marks & Spencers on the way back to our Hotel. I just went for a walk to Wenceslas Square, checked out a few shops, had a coffee & came back to the hotel. It was very hot & humid here today, with storms late afternoon.
We declined two optional tours, both over an hours coach ride each way from Prague & decided to have a very quiet day. We are both feeling very tired so feel justified in taking the day off as we have walked all over Europe this past 8 + weeks!
Tonight we just had a light dinner (Caesar Salad) in the bar downstairs & now just starting to sort out packing etc for tomorrow. Luckily we have a late checkout (12MD) with an airport transfer booked for 12.30pm. So can have a little sleep in and just have a final look at Prague before we leave for home.
The time has really flown & we can't believe that tomorrow it will all be over. Now the end is in sight, I am really keen to get home (despite the the cold weather we will encounter) & back to normal.
Will just add a couple of token photos of Prague & say goodnight (9.30pm here). This will probably be my last post until we arrive home. Once organised I will try to write a summary of highlights from our trip.
Not sure if I used this photo before. It was taken in Budapest & is one of the infamous Beer Peddle Bars. We also saw some in Amsterdam & it is powered like a push bike. 6 guys get on & peddle as fast as they can. There is a beer tap & the faster you peddle, the more beer comes from the tap. Very funny to watch & are used a lot for bucks parties etc.
Thank you to all those family & friends who have followed our travels since day 1. I really appreciate all the feedback received :)
To our fellow Sydney Swans AFL supporters, we will be nervously watching next Saturday's game against Carlton because we are currently on top of the ladder & they have not lost a game since we left Australia. It has even been suggested we stay away until after the Grand Final in September! Unfortunately the budget will not stretch that far.
Until we return to Oz ......
Betty & Mike
