James and Ellie in Europe
Day 10:
Having hidden from the mozzies it was a relief when the train finally turned up and we could take shelter!!! We quickly realised the way forward was to grab an empty compartment, lock the door, shut the curtains, turn the lights off and pretend to be asleep. That way you wouldn't be bothered and could sleep all night long....
After all of five minutes, we had our tickets inspected... and were told that our train didn't go to Karlovy Vary!!!!! AN HOUR LATER we were told actually, YES, your train DOES go to KV but you have to be in the front coach..... the front coach was full so out only choice was to wake up at Prague at 4am and hope that people had vacated a compartment.. luckily this was the case and we managed to grab two/three hours sleep before arriving at KV.
We couldn't check in until 12 so had to wander around (minus our bags which we left at the hostel) half asleep for four more hours before finally hitting the sack!!
KV is a very rich town all in all - westerners come here to have cheap plastic surgery etc and the whole town is famous for it's SPA treatments.... Our hostel had a treatment centre so we decided "what the hell" and got pampered... I was frankly terrified having never done anything like this before but it turned out to be very relaxing......
We had a fairly early night after a very ordinary dinner and looked forward to our day trip to Prague....
