1) I just made the tram to the train station (I sprinted, but I made it)
2) I overheard a guy ask where the car to Vienna was and basically stalked him to make sure I ended up in the correct place.
3) When the guy found out I was going to the same place and that we were on the opposite end of the train than we were supposed to be, we ventured on together. He is in the 10th grade, living in Prague, and was on his way to visit friends in Vienna. He also knew 5 languages, so he took care of finding us seats in the same room.
4) I took only my fleece jacket and was afraid that the morning would be extraordinarily cold, but it was beautiful! I was comfortable all day!
5) All the sightseeing went well and we did not get lost
6) We happened upon our Scottish friend, Kirsty, who told us about an awesome hill behind Shonbrunn Palace that overlooks the city (possibly the best part of the day).
7) Kirby's host for the night was sleeping when we got back, so we hung out with his neighbor who ended up walking me to the tram stop and telling me exactly how to get to the station.
8) I just made my train (by about 3 minutes)
9) I woke up with plenty of time to wake up before arriving in Prague.
10) It rained! This served as 2 blessings. #1 I love rain. #2 the park in front of the station is apparently not the best place to be at night (which I found out about last Wednesday), so I'm supposed to avoid going there alone....since it was all wet, there were no bums to jump me.
11) There were about 3 people walking to the tram stop at the same time as me, so I wasn't alone in the night.
12) The tram came just as I was walking up to the stop, so I went right to Hana's (where I am staying for the night).
13) The creepy Zizkov tower was in easy view of the tram stop and since I forgot to get a map to Hana's before I left, I was able to easily find the apt.
14) I have a roof over my head and now I can sleep.
