Some things I caught on about Prague:
* Beer is cheap here, really cheap. Which is probably why the Czechs drink more beer than any other country in the world, per capita! And no wonder - the beers here are also delicious!
* Nearly everywhere you go, you have to pay to go to the toilet - even at McDonalds (I’d never eat there, but it’s usually a free toilet opportunity).
* There are tourists everywhere in Prague. Sometimes I have to remind myself that I am one too.
* The Czechs aren’t really that proficient in English - except Z who speaks it very well indeed. The general rule - ask a young person, they will be able to speak some English - doesn’t really apply here.
* While beer is cheap, souvenirs are bloody expensive.
* The people are generally friendly.
* The Metro is fast & efficient.
* Overall, Prague is not an inexpensive city.

...♠Prague is so beautiful - the building facades, Wenceslas Square, Charles Bridge - a very human scale city - we loved it and despite the beer culture managed to find a few cosy wine bars.
