Prague wrapup

On a train out of Prague tomorrow. Feel like I've only scratched the surface after a tour through the castle, the old town, kafka museum, and some of the Jewish quarter.

Some random observations:
* tourism industry doesn't seem to be suffering at all here ... Hotels are mostly full
* everything costs money here ($0.50 to pee) -- which grates on you over time
* seems like a fun place to come with your drinking buddies, esp if they like pilsner urquell
* the 18 hours of daylight in the summer takes some getting used to
* they take their city supervisors a bit more seriously here... A few have been thrown to their death out the windows
* money changers are from hell
* really gorgeous city. Did I mention that?
