Wednesday, April 11, 2007:the last part of the trip

was too sian to study le. so decided to blog more about my trip.

as continued from before, we had reached prague. went to our hostel to put down our bags and off we went to visit the city. we walked all the way to the main attractions. love the castle, the bridges, the scenery. really loved the place alot. along the main bridge wanted to ask someone to draw a protrait of me. ahahha. anw, off we went to visit the prague castle. the castle was damn big, fairytale-like. we witnessed the change of guards too!! so it was more castles/cathedrals/museums. hahaha. it was a relaxing day. then off we went to the eastern markets and visit the small shops nearby. that was where haojun bought his dead sea salt for baths. hahah.

so after which we were all too sian to continue. so off we went back to our hostel. since we all too shagged, ks and astee slept immediately when we reached. blame the train we took the night before. heez. i went to bathe and at 553pm went to sleep. the amazing thing was i woke up next day at 8am. heez.... only haojun and gabriel went out to walk that night. that was oso when the 2 poor things got approached by prostitutes. ahhaha. yah yah, me is a pig. heez... at least ks and astee woke up at 12am to bathe and read/write some stuff but me slept all the way!! =) after which i juz kept kena suan...

the next day was juz plain klkk-ng. hahha. and by afternoon we went back cos we wanted to go back to the main bridge again that night. so we spent the evening playing german bridge.. until time for us to have dinner. we had chinese food for dinner. it was cheap and alot! ahahha... think the chinese are quite smart to open eateries in europe. the night scene of the bridge was spectacular too. me reallie was in love wif the place. yup... saw my BB senior too... the world is soo small and the thing is the countries that he visited were the same as ours.

the following day, gabriel left us. cos he was gg to norway. and we took a fast train to vienna. astee thought the 3 guys how to play spades. and we juz played for the whole journey. when we reached vienna, went to our hostel. this hostel worbat was quite cheap but super commercialised. oh 1 thing about europe. in some countries or cities like vienna, we took the trains for free... this is because they dun have gantries to stop people from paying before gg in. so we juz walked in and out. heez. so off we went to visit more musems/cathedrals.. the higlight was when we went to the winter palace. it is now a museum illustrating empress sisi.. like those shows u see on tvs, she was married into the royal family but she din like her status, she liked to go to other countries, her husband liked her alot but the love was not reciprocated. she was also a poet... the way she described stuff was quite funny sometimes. like there was this incident, where she was over 30 and she thought that she wasnt pretty anymore. so she wrote in her diary, "my bile is stirred whenever i see eyes gawking at me" hahah... cool way of describing...

by this time, we were all too sian wif musems/cathedrals blah blah.. haha... oh vienna has no night life at all! all shops are closed and finding dinner at night was the worst thing ever... in the end found this cafe... and when we paid for the food, the waiter had to tell us 3 times that the amount had no service charge, aka we nid to pay tips... ahhha. got quite turned off.... but we gave some tips in the end. in fact we gave tips to most of the eateries in austria.. oh and cheehui and kenny shared the same room wif us that night. but they went to bratisclava the following day... so din get to talk to them much oso.. that night e 4 of us played cards again and this time we drank abit too... and we played games and i was always so suay to drink.. haiz... slept wif my heart pumping quite fast... haha.

saw zhixian the day after. and off we went to visit the summer palace and the areas beside it... the setting was reallie nice and it was nice juz walking around. had austrian dinner at a restaurant near our hostel...

so off we went to salzberg leaving xian behind. haha... cos he was to go to some other place to play freesbie. took another train to salzberg. the moment we reached the hostel, went for the sound of music tour. remembered last seeing the movie when i was in primary 5. and i loved it alot. want to watch the movie again... ahhahaha.. oh definitely going to watch the musical if i have the chance... oh and 1 thing that struck me in austria is that they have this teeshirt saying AUSTRIA HAS NO KANGAROOS hahha.. apparently alot of people mistook austria for australia. after the tour, we went to search again but this time in vain for dinner.... so in the end went back to hostel to have dinner there. and we played hearts, german bridge and spades over dinner. ahha...

the last day of our tour, we were all too sian to go visit places. so we went to buy train tickets to klagenfurt for our flight back to london and went back to hostel to catch 1 hour of sound of music the movie... and we have to leave in the middle of the show to catch our train..

so that marks the end of our trip. ahahah a relaxing trip i must say....

but now i am not relaxed! heez. photos coming up when i have the time...
