Praha

St. Wenceslas Vineyard

St. Vitus Cathedral 

We traveled to Prague on Saturday and The train arrived around 7. Our hostel was super close to the train station (we've been lucky with that). Our hostel seemed more like a hotel. It was very nice and full of young kids it had a rotating bar called 360 which was neat and the overall decor was very modern. We ate dinner at the hotel because we were really tired. I had classic Czech food that was really good. It was duck, cabbage and gnocchi. Our hotel had accidentally put 5 girls into our room instead of four, so they moved us to a six girl room for the night and upgraded us to a private two person room for the second two night The girls that were in our old 4 person room were from Australia. They were really cute and nice. We met them in he bar for a little after dinner and decided to try to go to the famous five story club. We all hated it. It was not our scene. We only stayed for about 10 minutes.

Bohehmia Bagel

The next day we switched into our private room and explored the city. We saw the famous astronomical clock tower strike an hour. When it does this, some skeleton looking things automatically ring bells. It was interesting but over rated. Then we walked to the Charles Bridge and up the bell tower on it. The view from the top was beautiful and Joanna and I were strangely the only people up there the whole time. We walked across the bridge and up a hill to the Prague Castle and into the Saint Vitus Cathedral. We got another great view of the city! Our friends recommended a vineyard by the church where we could get a glass of wine a some snacks. The terrace sat over the whole city and we sat there enjoying the view and nice weather all afternoon.

Lennon Wall

Dancing Building

The next day we went to a bagel shop for lunch to get our American Food fix for the trip. It was very good an had been recommended by a lot of our friends. After, we went to a mall to find a Topshop, then went to the John Lennon Wall. Some people had extra paint, so they gave to to us to paint something of our own! I could not get very creative as usual, but we got to make our mark. After, we walked to the Dancing Building. We were planning on going up to the cafe at the top because it was supposed to have a Great view, but it was closed for renovations.

That night we had dinner with our Australian friends at a really good Italian restaurant across the street from our hotel. We all got different pastaS, pizzas and salads and ate them family style. It was one of the best meals of Europe! We went out to a neat underground bar where we all split one giant Mojito! Prague was a wonderful city!
