I finally managed to find my way to the A&O hostel I’d booked. Fairly near to the station (500m), it was a good location for a one night stay.
Up till 12:30 writing on my notebook, I still managed to get up fairly early for breakfast. I planned to spend about 3 hours in the old part of town before my train trip at just before 2pm.
So, off I went, jumped on a tram, & found myself amongst old buildings in about 10 mins. And all I did then was wander. There were heaps of tourists about, many of them looked retired - it was as if Dresden was one big retirement village.
I bought a postcard from a little shop & the guy was a complete grump & yelled at me when I asked him how much it cost. I told him he should cheer up & not be so grumpy - his look said he didn’t like me.
Again, another town with extensive renovation work going on in peak tourist season - just don’t get that at all. And many of the sites were either closed or had a quite expensive entrance fee.
