Well i'm recently back from my last trip.
Starting off in Prague on my birthday, I was able to take a pic of the astrological clock exactly how it should look for my bday, I was quiet stoked by that
There is plenty to see in Prague its a brilliant city, I could post hundreds of photos, but I wont. The main square has basically a fantastic 360 degree view. The castle, apparently the largest in area in the world was pretty cool as well as the changing of the guards. The night life is fantastic, although I don't think i met any czechs out and about, so im guessing i found the tourist traps. Prague is pretty much a city you have to do, no matter how over run it will get with tourist.
HERE IS THE FOOTY TEAM.. well most of us
Vienna is a loverly city, I only spent about a day and a half there but, its interesting to hear the accent difference between german and austrians. I managed to do a night bike ride tour which took in most of the sites and also had one of the most awesome hot dogs (weiner dog) ever, it had cheese INSIDE the weiner! A pretty amazing church in the town square which unfortunately doesn't go a day without scaffolding around some part of the structure. A very good city to just stroll around. The Peoples Palace is also something to be seen.
Bratislava, well.. I don't have much to say about it. Just make sure if you ever catch the train there that you get to the old town station and not the new town one, as its about a two and a half hour walk through a dodgy ghetto soviet blocks area where I thought I was going to get jacked for sure with all my stuff on me. The town its self can be done in about 5 hours including the worst castle I have come across, cant knock them for trying though, it was rebuilt in the 50's, but just doesnt have that castle feel. I was in town for the Slovakia vs Poland WC qualifer, so i thought the town would be jumping.. It wasn't, they dont care much for football.
Budapest was fucking AWESOME! I love the place, I feel as though I cheated the place to only spend 3 nights there. I highly recommend doing a bike tour as its pretty spread out and a lot of history in the place that can't be known with only taking pictures. The night life is cracking, the people are friendly and its pretty cheap living. Although it is weird handing over 600 of a currency to by a pint in a pub. A day at the thermal baths is a must too... even just to watch the old guys with big chains playing chess all day in the bath. I'm still trying to decide if my favourite place is Krakow or Budapest, cause it was seriously that cool
