Good day to all! It so happened that I used to share all the good things that happen to me : -). That is why I want to tell you about the trip to Prague. The purpose of the trip was actually Germany, but since it is easier with a visa to the Czech Republic, we went through it (or rather flew). Departure from Donetsk early in the morning - no complaints. In 3 hours we are in Prague. The first thing you feel is VERY clean ionized air, the second is the number of Skoda cars : -). We are met by a representative and driven to the Mira 3 * hotel, answering a whole bunch of our questions along the way.

Hotel: the usual "three rubles", the girl at the reception speaks Russian (she is from Kyiv). We were not allowed breakfast on the first day (check-in from 12.00 or 14.00, I don’t remember), so for 8 euros they let us both in for the remains of the buffet. We borrowed Czech money for tram tickets so that we could get to the exchange offices. In general, the impression is still on the four ...Let's go to change money.


We got up at the "Museum" stop, crossed the road, went to look for Arab exchangers (everyone said that the exchange rate there is normal and the Arabs are not fooling). On the way, we begin to slowly go nuts with the surrounding architecture : -). The exchangers turned out to be really normal. Along the way, an adequate young man hands us a flyer with excursions and leads us to the office. There we choose a city tour, and they explain to us where you can eat human food (so as not to fast food). We leave the agency under the pleasant impression of the professional work of the manager (I think the name is Nastya). We go to the cafe that she advised (this is 300 meters from their office). Pretty inconspicuous beer, we go inside, everything is neat. We sit down, the waitress runs up, we ask her what can be quickly cooked, to which she replies that this is a restaurant, not fast food. I see...We order soup and some meat. We are waiting ...A minute and a half passes - they bring tea - good. Another two minutes pass - they bring soup! ! !

I'm shocked (it's not warmed up, but only freshly brewed! ) We drank tea, just started eating soup - they bring meat (that is, another five minutes) And they have it "like not fast"! ! ! The food is cool, the meat does not fit in us, because the soup was also with meat : -) We wrap the leftovers with them. Money spent for two about 17-18 euros. The meat was then eaten for half a day. We went to look for a toilet, we found it, we go in - there are lemons in the urinals! Beautiful! !  Happy with everything that was happening around, they went to the river to swim on a boat. While we are going, we are again freaking out with architecture. It looked like this from the side: turned your head to the right - beautiful, walked a hundred meters - even more beautiful, looked in the other direction - wow! ! , turned the corner - go nuts! ! , went to the Old Town Square - well, finally! ! Well, somehow we still got to the pier, took a ride on a boat, everything is super. We ran on a city tour (just the time has come).

By the way, a chic excursion - first we ride a minibus for 30 minutes and the guide tells everything, then three hours on foot leisurely in the center of Prague - class! The guide was sensible, the time passed quickly. Sea of ​ ​ impressions! We came to the hotel in the evening to swim and sleep. In the morning go to Hannover by train.

We are going with a transfer in Berlin. Round-trip tickets - 240 euros per person. In Berlin, at the train station, we buy Evian water 1.5 l - 1.39 euros = 16 UAH! ! ! We have it "slightly" more expensive! ! ! And, in my opinion, it differs in quality from "our" "Evian". Although, as for me, throwing a bag of coral mineralizer into a bottle of filtered water is still cheaper (1.5 l-7 UAH) and really more useful! The locomotive, which is from Berlin to Hannover, is like an airplane (inside) with a speed of 230 km/h. Hannover does not evoke any emotions as a city. In general, I liked the Czech Republic MUCH more than Germany. We went to the exhibition in Germany, but this is a separate topic.


Hotel in Hannover - the room is normal, but the toilet and shower are in the corridor  . Wi-fi in Germany almost everywhere for money. An important point if you change trains in Berlin - keep in mind that your next steam locomotive may not be at the same stop as the previous one (there are several stations in Berlin). We return to the hotel in Prague, swim, check out and go to the city (with breakfast we flew again). The whole day we run around Prague (buying souvenirs, pictures, etc. ) By the way, do not cross the road at a red light, even if there are no cars nearby, the police are there ..... Lastly, we run along the Charles Bridge, take souvenirs, admire the landscapes, at this time classical music performed by a violinist plays on the bridge ....like the end of a good romantic movie.

We run on the subway, then the bus, and here it is - the airport. Customs is pretty fast, then Duty Free (by the way, Swiss chocolate in Dubai Duty Free is much better!

Best regards, Sergei!
