Easter provided the opportunity for me to travel, so I made the most of it. Although I could have done without the snow. This Spring has not been in any way what I expected. On the up side though, I have never experienced a white Christmas (but have always wanted too) so instead I have now experienced a white Easter. 
For my Easter travels I first left for Germany to spend Easter with my friend in Magdeburg. She had planned a lot of things for us to do. Unfortunately, the weather didn't allow this. Instead, we went on a lot of walks in the snow. I do have to admit, the snow is still very pretty and I enjoyed the walks through the forest. I went on my first Easter hunt (in the snow) and ate plenty of chocolate. 

Before leaving Germany, I spent a day in Dresden. We saw the main sights of Dresden as well as a wonderful view across the city. In addition, we went to the Green Vault which has some spectacular rooms to view including an Amber Room. 
Leaving Germany, I then went to Prague. I thoroughly enjoyed the train ride down, along the river with the forest, cliffs and stalactites of ice to view along the way. I also saw hills for the first time since I have been in Europe. The land here is unbelievably flat. In Prague, I was meeting up with some fellow volunteers to spend the week there. Unfortunately, I got terribly lost went I first left the train station. It took me 2 hours to find the hostel we were supposed to be staying in, even though it was only a 20 minute walk. I guess I saw the 'real' Prague during this time. I really was wondering why Prague was so highly recommended. However, finally I did find where I was supposed to be. The atmosphere of Prague is what makes it. There are so many different cultures and languages on the street, packed with tourists from all walks of life. I enjoyed this. Unfortunately, I was unwell for my entire stay in Prague and struggled to see what I wanted to. Fortunately however, I did manage to; go on a walking tour through the old town, had a short tour of the castle, climbed the hill to Prague's Eiffel Tower (the view is worth seeing, not the tower), went on an underground tour and also saw a Black Theatre Show which although small was very cool to see. 

The weather appears to have finally brought Spring to Warsaw. I can feel the atmosphere of the city changing already. So I'm going to try to lap up all the sun I can.
