Day 1: Dinner buffet where Joseph Stalin used to eat
I’m now in Prague, Czech Republic. It’s a very beautiful city, but there are also some parts that are obviously remnants from when the country was still under communist rule under the USSR - a lot of buildings that are slowly deteriorating, for instance. I also notice the presence of a LOT of foreign companies, such as T-Mobile, ESSO, Shell, LG, and McDonald’s - and these were all just on the way from the airport to my hotel.
I’m staying in a 4-star hotel right now, the Crowne Plaza. It’s where Russian diplomats, such as Joseph Stalin, used to stay when they were in town.
On the 8 hour British Airways flight over to London, I didn’t get much sleep, so hopefully I can catch up more on my sleep tonight. Although, the flight in general was fine, because I’ve taken at least 4 cross-Atlantic flights so far. Once I reached London, I took another flight to Prague, which was about 2 hours. That was worse, because the seats weren’t as comfortable since the plane is intended only for traveling over shorter distances; it’s an Airbus.
Charles bridge (I heard it’s beautiful at night, when the lights are all on), and other night-related activities.
Bye for now!
UPDATE: It was nice and cool outside because it was late. During the day here, it can reach up to 40 C sometimes, and so I’m not looknig forward to the heat tomorrow. I just walked around the ‘Old Town’ today, to see where I want to go tomorrow during the day. There are a lot of churches, especially, and so I’ll probably end up going to at least a few of those.
