We had to check out by 10 but were able to leave our bags at a place also run by the same apartments and it was only a short walk away. We had a further wander around Prague, had coffee at a nice courtyard cafe and then did some sight seeing in a part of […]
Day 36: Prague Wednesday 15 July
We set out earlier as Jen wanted to get to the Charles Bridge before the crowds. Good call as we got there not long after 9am and were able to photograph things without too much competition. Having said that, nowhere is far in the old part of the city so it wasn’t a long trek. […]
