praha, Czech Republic
and the pits
Wow - what a let down or did we just come into the city via the local dump - i have never seen so much graffiti and so many buildings in rubble state. rubbish everywhere. and very disappointing prices - we were hoping to grab some bargains but their economy has risen in the last year - which means they have done themselves out of changing currency to the Euro and have had to stay with the koruna - hence a big mac meal is 99 of the buggers. $6.30 and a coffee any where was the same price as in london - we heard a few of the locals complaining about the prices. the vendors at the street markets got hostile because we looked and didn't buy.
