2010-10-13: Trains to Praha

After visiting a few more locations in Wien, I went by train to Praha (Prague).

I had to change trains in Breclav. There, the printed chart showed the train to Praha on one track. The electronic display showed the train on another track. And the audio announcement gave a third choice. Fortunately, I saw an actual physical train labeled with my train number and “Praha hl.n.”, so I got on that.

I lucked out with a large hotel room. I think it must serve as a dormitory at times, because it had four small beds.

Many people in Praha speak English, and very well. It is more common and better than other officially non-English-speaking cities I have been too. (As I discovered over the next few days, Praha is very tourist oriented.)
