Waldsassen, Bavaria Tuesday August 26th 2013

We left our nice pension on the outskirts of Prag for the train station. We were a bit nervous about  finding our way, but the route was well signed and mac is an excellent map reader. It took us only an hour to get across this very big city to the station. We had booked tickets for Cheb which is very near the Bavarien Border from there we could ride to another town to catch a train were we would not have so many changes.
