An American Girl in Paris
serious crayons:
I spent a few hours in a French train station once. I had to ask a question at the information desk. Yay! Finally an opportunity to use my high school/college French. So I asked the question in my halting French. The woman behind the counter rolled her eyes and responded in English. :laugh:
But later, I had to ask another question. I tried again, this time with a different railroad employee. "Est-ce que ce le train à Prague?" ("Is this the train to Prague?") "Oui," he said. Success!! :D

My suggestion was, when you get to the point of feeling a little tired, take the boat ride. You can sit there, relax, get your second wind, and still be doing some sightseeing.

Taking naps it is also a good idea. Helps you get through the day.

I LOVED Prague, as well as the little towns in surrounding countryside. It was all very fairy-talish. Maybe we can hold the Brokeback BBQ 2011 there! ;D
