On our way to Prague, we stopped in Dresden, Germany. Dresden was almost completely destroyed after bombings during WWII, and has rebuilt, mostly in the last 20 years. Visiting this city, however, you would never know that the buildings were so new. We were able to take in some authentic German cuisine and explore the city for about 4 hours before making the trek to Prague.
We arrived in Prague around 7:00 pm, and after a tense conversation with the hotel, the German bus drivers reluctantly drove us into the city center. Typically, tour busses are not allowed on the streets of new or old Prague. Most streets are dangerously narrow, and the busses detract from the natural historic beauty. Upon arriving at the Falkensteiner Hotel Maria Prag, we received an orientation from our new travel companion Petr. All were pleasantly surprised with the more modern, slightly larger rooms and the fact that we could all get internet in our rooms!
