Well we made it safely to Prague with no hiccups and all well after almost 24hours of travelling - 13 hours flying to Dubai, 4 hours at Dubai airport then 6 hours flying to Prague! We all slept on and off on the plane - enough sleep for Ali not to be sick! We seemed to be eating forever on the plane too - dinner as soon as we were in the air then a "snack" midway through the flight then breakfast just before landing in Dubai. Then we had another breakfast once in the air from Dubai followed by lunch a couple of hours later! The food was not bad for plane food, but I don't want to be eating all that food everyday!
Ali has decided to collect pins from each place we visit to put on her lanyard - so far she has 6! (some are double ups).
At Dubai, Ali had her first experience of "squat " toilets! She was horrified and walked straight back out!
We were met at Prague airport by a representative from the tour company and taken to our hotel. An hour later we had an information session to tell us how things are going to work for the next few days. Then we went on an orientation walk of the old Town of Prague! Wow what a beautiful city! One of the highlights was to see the Gastronomical clock chime on the hour. This clock is over 600 years old! I will tell you more later as we are leaving on a tour of the Prague castle and more soon!
After our orientation walk, we headed back to the hotel for dinner (we ended up getting McDonalds as everyone was tired and Ali needed to go to bed)! We were all in bed by 8.15pm and asleep soon after!
I am just whetting your appetite with this post! Will tell you more later today and post some pictures!
