I have just been lucky enough to return from a trip to seven Eastern European
countries and I must say I completely agree with our European guests’ assessment
of us. On our last day in Prague, for example, we headed to their airport at 8
a.m. I assumed we would need to leave very early to accommodate rush hour. Not
so, there was none. Prague has a very cheap and efficient transit system and
very little downtown parking. You can buy reasonable tickets that are good for
their subway, tram and bus system, that are easy to understand even for
tourists. via
