My first trip was to the Czech Republic, Germany (Bavaria,) and Austria. The flight was from Boston to Prague with a change at Munich. All went without incident, but these flight across the Atlantic are loooonnnng. Was met at the airport by our guide Barbara, we picked up another couple from the group, and had a ride into Prague to our hotel, the President. Spent the afternoon wandering around the old city, picked up a pair of pajamas, which I had neglected to pack, at a local department store, and saw Tosca at the Prague Opera in the evening. The subways and trolleys are frequent, and get you just about everywhere. Wish there had been more time, as Prague was a delight.
