Day 10: To Prague

28Jul07

Today was both Julie and Henri’s anniversary as well as Sascha’s birthday. Commemorating the anniversary, Sascha decorated another cake at the front of the bus while the service girls brought him a lovely candle lit desert and card from the choir.

This was a travel day to Prague and the bus stopped in a non-descript Czech town for lunch where we mixed English, some German and a lot of sign language to order some lunch. Some had less of a challenge as they shamefully ventured into McDonalds for Big Macs and fries… It was also challenging adjusting to a new currency.

We arrived in Prague, what was to become the laundry capital of our tour, before dinner. Bus rides will be ever the more pleasant now. While wandering though Wenceslas Square, a few Phoenicians ended up at a terraced restaurant called Café Boulevard where they ordered a Pilsner. The waiter asked if they would like a large and some nodded. The picture tells the rest of the story.
