Krakow Europe
well things are just moving along nicely. got to teh train station an hour early last night, enough time to scope out where i was going, buy some 50% off pastries for the ride, and relax for a few minutes. so they didn't put the platform number up on the sign until about 15 mins before teh train was leaving. i head out to platform 2 and try to figure out where wagon 354 is. i go one way adn find 360, the one next to that is 348 or something, then the next was labeled something totally different. anyways i [View Full Entry]

Off to Poland Europe » Czech Republic » Prague
well i managed to get another couple of hours sleep early this morning before breakfast. went back to bed around 430 till about 7. i am going to be messed up for the next few days, but at least i got lots of sleep last night before, what i presume, will be a pretty sleepless night tonight. had the breakfast at the hotel again, and as usual, stuffed myself and my man-bag with pastries. anyways, packed up slowly this morning and hung around till checkout time around noon, then dropped my bags in the hotel luggage room for the day. Went [View Full Entry]

Rainy Prague Europe » Czech Republic » Prague
well i didnt do anything after last night, just finished up my laundry (back up to 4 days of clean clothes!) and packed everything up for my 830 train this morning. thought i was getting some payback on my roommates by getting up at 630 but they got up a few mins later to catch a flight. oh well. caught the subway one stop, the train 3 stops and i was an hour early for my train. so i had a bacon and egg mcmuffin and some OJ (yes at mcds... bad) and bought a schnitzel sandwich and a "chocolate bread" [View Full Entry]
