Ok here it goes
NO funny story with this one .It was lunch time and my manager came up to me and asked me if i had taken any holidays last 5months turns out i have not had a single day out !!!! How surprising lunch time i am on google .
A week later i have a cheap ticket to Prague (bmi baby) and flying out of Bratislava !! wht route could i possibly take .My complex mind evaluated all the possibilities faster than a P4 processor and told me this
Go to Prague - Budapest - Vienna - Bratislava ( fly out )
This was decided much before i had a look at the train schedules and journey time between them. Well chaos rules !!!!
As my wise uncle would put it "Get in the water only then will u learn to swim"

Ok rite let bring in some order , I am not that unorganised did check some train times and the travel plan changed slightly.
Prague - Kutna hora-Vienna-Budapest- Schentendre- Bratislava
11 days 3 major cities cant be that bad to catch in some local action as well i taught. So made a special emphasis to stay in Hungary for 4 days.
Whts more Hungary and Czech are cheap.
K packed up the night before i left .Only the first nights accomodation sorted 6 hrs before I flew.u guys must note that i am using this trip to measure my reaction reaction to compleatly unplanned trip to make my self ready for bigger things :) .
Tu as commence LA
Excitement kicked in so couldn't sleep a lot finally when i eventually dozed of to sleep it was time to get up . Ok Tea toast and run at 6:30 in the morning to catch a bus to the airport
As always Just in time Running and panting !!!!! Turns out the bus is late so i am saved .Made it to Prague without any major issues .Came out to take some sort of Bus to the city

Issue No 1 . All i had with me was around 2oo Krone note and the machine would only accept coins .32 Cz Krona for a single ticket!!
Was trying to figure out how to get change when i talked to a CZ guy and he paid for my ticket Whooooo ho wht at welcome made it to the metro station and then took a metro travelling ticket less and no with a luggage supplement (God knows wht would have happened if i was caught). Got of at a station called Muzeum walk to the hostel
Checked in a quick nap after i meet Gasper , more of him later.We talked a bit he told me he is working in Slovenia and here to visit his brother who is studying .I took this opportunity to invite him for a couple of drinks .... oh my brother knows a lot of places was his response, well rendezvous point confirmed i head into town.
Prague has a archieture unique to itself although now attacked by tourists hungry and hung over from the endless Stag parties what they probably miss is in my view one of the most unique ,Quint city in this world.Beauty as a word has its own definition here. The archieture is uniquely and impressively Gothic .
I was bowled over ,What an impressive city .Once the sun sets a unique Prague comes to life Step into the Mala Strana u are transformed in time to 16th century .The small cobbled street ,Quent little cafes and the Gas lights take u to a different era all together
Whts more Pilsner Urequelle - For those who don't know Pilsners taste awesome in CZ infact this is where it is from . Taught about having a proper CZ meal so pub ,Pilsner and pork it was
Back to the hostel where Mr Gasper was waiting with his brother and a friend .Quick round of intros and off we go for a nite out in town.
In the end peeed in full view of other people next to the Bus stop and headed of to another pub( i remember this)felt like i left a bit of myself in Prague lol .After this ,the details are a bit Hazy(becs i dont know) made it to the hostel allrite and slept like a log.
Next day it was time to go to Kutna Hora the place of a very interesting ossuary . Sad bye to my Slovenian friends and I headed out to catch the train
