It's time for Berlin

Today we decided to take the subway to see how real Czechs get around the city. We like to experience the places we go as authentically as possible. Sounds like a good idea, right?

Wrong. It resulted in a 700 crown ticket for each of us. That's about $85. Long story. Bottom line is this: if you ride the trains in Prague, make sure you get a stamp from the obscure looking green box after you buy your ticket. Without that stamp, regardless of whether you have paid the right amount of money, you can get a ticket from the eerily communist looking inspector.

We're so happy to be going to Berlin in the morning.
