'''UDS Intrepid will be in Prague!''' Luckily our locals from the Ubuntu CZ team contributed a few tips on '''[[http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?f=q&hl=en&geocode=&jsv=107&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=108939198110825717970.00044b22dde160d3d3e4f&ll=50.062649,14.440198&spn=0.018376,0.042315&z=15|the Map]]''' Find out: * how to get around, * where to go out, * what to do, * what they like, * where to get good food, * etc. == Travel == Public transport: You can purchase a 5 day ticket for all kinds of public transport (underground, trolleys, buses). It costs roughly 22 EUR. Alternatively, you can purchase a ticket for the train with a time limit on, 60 minutes (or 90 minutes in the evenings) and this costs 1 EUR. For more information check out this page: http://www.dpp.cz/en/travelling-in-prague/ (you may safely ignore the additional zones). You can reach the hotel three ways via public transport: Bus 100 -> Line B Zličín -> Line C Florenc -> Vyšehrad (slow) Bus 119 -> Line A Dejvická -> Line C Muzeum -> Vyšehrad (medium) Airport Express -> Line C Nádraží Holešovice -> Vyšehrad (fast) http://www.myczechrepublic.com/prague/prague-airport-bus.html == Social Meets == NOTICE: Please break out into groups for dinner.
