24. December 2011: Hear My Train A Comin'

We awoke this morning still very sick but determined to make it through some more of Prague before boarding the train again. We made it halfway up Petrin Hill to see a beautiful view of the city before realizing that our time in Prague was nearly up.
On our way back to the station, we stumbled upon the John Lennon Wall. It doesn't have any historical significance, it's just a wall that people continuously color with Lennon and Beatles-inspired graffiti. Today, it is a symbol of peace and love. It was a cool sight to stumble upon, for sure.
Finally, we boarded the train to Vienna and watched the sun set over the Czech countryside on Christmas Eve--one of those images that a photo can never capture.
We changed trains in Vienna and found a Halal market still open on Christmas Eve (possibly the only business in all of Austria that was still open) and rode overnight to Florence.
