Dresden Tip
One of the more interesting sights was this statue. It remembered the firebombing of 1945. I wrote the text down but lost the paper before arriving home. If anyone has it, I would appreciate it if you would email it to me.

Sorry guys for bothering you guys with so many questions!
Last year when i went Europe in June, it wasnt really that peak period yet.
I am leaving for Holland end of July ,was wondering should I book the train ticket from Berlin to Dresden and Dresden to Prague online before I go. It costs around 29 and 38 euros respectively. Anyone know it is cheaper to buy at the train station than online?
Cant wait to be there...whoopeee...
Thanks!!!
If you wait to buy the summerspecials - 29/39 Euro - at the train station, you'll pay 5 Euro more per ticket.Also there is only a certain amount of these tickets available, if they are sold out you'll pay a lot more. So book as soon as possible.
You could buy one normal ticket Berlin to Prague. Single 2nd class EUR 51,80.
As an international ticket this ticket is valid 2 months and allows breaks as long as they are en route (= Dresden).
No price difference between buying online (from www.bahn.de) and at the counter. Only the seat reservation - if you like to have one - is cheaper (1,50 vs 3,00) if you buy it online or from a ticket machine with the ticket.
July/August are no peak period if it comes to trains in Germany. Except maybe some touristic or museum railways.
If they are on vacation people don't travel to work, to their business partners, to their university etc. The number of foreign tourists is not high enough to replace these numbers.
Thanks!
I went to the website to check out, it states that the maximum duration of stopovers is 48:00 hours. How to buy an international ticket? So i can actually purchase when i reach Berlin...thanks alot for everyone's help =)
> How to buy an international ticket?
Go to the counter or a ticket machine and buy a ticket from Berlin to Prague. This will be automatically an international ticket.
> So i can actually purchase when i reach Berlin.
Yes.

If you wanna go hiking in the 'Saechsische Schweiz' (Saxon Switzerland) take some shoes for hiking or sneakers with you because some ways are not so easy to go. Take a camera and a lot of films with you!!
Priestewitz is a town of 3642 people, located 35 kilometers northwest of Dresden. I have been to Priestewitz twice, but only to change trains. It's on the main line from Leipzig to Dresden, and you can change here to go to Hoyerswerda, among other places.
Maybe changing trains is the most exciting thing there is to do in Priestewitz, I don't know.
The cable car. it's quite old but has been renovated.
There is another cablecar near to this one wich is very unique: It hangs on the overhead track (not on cables). But it was been rebuilt when we were there.
Pf. Molkerei dates back to the year 1892 and all of the walls are covered by beautiful tiles.
Last summer I saw in a brochure this lovely dairy, where you may also sit in this side-room and enjoy some Buttermilk and cheese, and so I booked a tourbus, that would stop there in order to take a picture and taste some of their food and have a buttermilk....
I entered the shop and in that very moment the lady at the counter started to scream
NO Photographs !!!
I simply turned around and gave up my plans to buy anything there and had some coffee somewhere else...
I did not disturb anyone BUT had the feeling, that lots of customers in the shop were rather disturbed by that sceaming lady than by my camera.
They had a sign at their door about photography, BUT the door was open, so I did not see it...
In December 2004 I returned shortly before 06.00p.m. and took my pictures legally from OUTside of the shop.
And I also got the legal advice by a VT-friend : as long as you make a picture of a place that is open to the public and you stand with your camera on a public ground, you may take that photo without any problem.
Of course you may not look into a private window and take pics !
If the Molkerei wants to prevent me from taking pics, they could have curtains at their windows...
:-)) Friends reading my pages regularily will know that I am a big fan of all kinds of cheese and even drink a lot of buttermilk...
I would be the perfect customer for Pf.... Molkerei, BUT I will certainly never enter this place to buy anything.
I even would never print out their full name here on VT...
