Going To Prague Tomorrow
on: January 17, 2006, 05:52:45 PM
It was my 21st birthday yesterday, and for the occasion my girlfriend booked us a short break in Prague :) We have to leave the house at about 4am tomorrow morning to catch our flight.
For those who don't know, there is a Mozart museum in Prague where Mozart once stayed.   There is also the Estates Theatre, where Don Giovanni and La Clemenza di Tito were first performed.

Happy 21st.

I had a weekend in Clacton on mine, Prague sounds exciting.

Could be a good opportunity to get rid of the girlfriend. Get her interested in the shops and make a dash for the airport ;D.

I didnt realise there was a Mozart museum in Parague. I've been to Mozart's birthplace in Vienna, that was lovely - anyone else been? I really adore Austria.
