Wiener Straße, Prager Straße & Budapester Straße


As they sat on the bus on their way to Prague they began to realise yet again that it was all there, presented for them, even when they felt totally lost.

That second day when they found themselves walking along Wiener Straße to the Hauptbahnhof they did wonder if this was a sign that Vienna was next.  What didn't quite fit was they had arrived in Dresden at the Neustadt station as this was nearer their hotel.  It made sense to leave from this station to wherever they went next.  But they only saw themselves leaving by train...


They hadn't anticipated going anywhere by bus.  Now they actually had left from the very train station Wiener Straße ran along.  In fact, the square directly in front of the station is called Wiener Platz.


Not only that but the main shopping street perpendicular to the station and leading up to it, which they walked along everyday, is called Prager Straße.


Close by is Budapester Straße.  Was Budapest on the horizon?  They couldn't see anywhere else in the frame after Vienna.  Before they were gone Dave left a message for the maid service at the hotel...
