Easter Break

What the Americans call 'Spring Break' is rapidly approaching here in Europe. April 8th to 15th is our allotted time to spring around the country, seeing and photographing city after city. And now we have a rough idea of what we'll be doing. Here's a peek:

8th - am leave for Prague
*staying at Hostel Pompo, Jakubská 744/4, 110 00
*see an opera at the state operahouse
11th - am depart for Nuremberg
*staying at the Lette'm sleep Nürnberg Hostel, Frauentormauer 42
*see holocaust museum and hopefully some trombony stuff
12th - am depart for Beyreuth
*see Wagner stuff
12th - pm depart for Salzburg
*staying at the Yoho Intl Youth Hostel, Paracelsusstrasse 9
14th - am to Vienna
*staying at the Wombat Lounge, Mariahilfer Straße 137
17th - am to Budapest (via Danube Hydrofoil, possibly)

Hostels were chosen on basis of location to center of the city. All very good spots, all less than $25 per person per night. Yes, on a few places we may have four other people in a room with us, but I feel that, as they are fellow travellers, we will have at least that in common and will make some good connections.
