Euro Trip - Prague


Ohhh Prague, how I love you! Such an amazing city! Below is a picture of of a little town on our train ride. That's how all the train rides have been, little towns everywhere, lots of green open land, a lot of beautiful amazingness.

We got a little lost finding our hostel in Prague, but eventually we found it. It was sooo busy in Prague. The celebration of the reunification of Berlin was Friday, so it was a holiday for everyone in Germany, which naturally meant they all went to Prague for the long weekend. The streets were packed, so we're the restaurants, bars, hotels, etc.

Once we checked in, we went to the old city of Prague. It was different than Dresden, but still so cool! There were performers in Old Town Square, and all of the restaurants had outside eating where you could drink, eat, watch the performers, and be merry. We ate at a Czech restaurant for dinner, Tyler got goulash, and I got baked duck. This was the best baked duck I have ever had, it came with dumplings and green and red cabbage; I ate it all. Tyler's phone died so I couldn't take a picture. :( 






At dinner was decided to go on a pub crawl that ended in a 5 story club. It was a great time. We met some people from New Zealand and South America, and partied with them all night.



But first let me take a selfie came on..

The next day we got up and headed to the Prague Castle. It looked like a castle out of a movie, up high on a hill, overlooking the rest of the city. It was absolutely gorgeous. We went to the cathedral there and the old castle as well. We also crossed the beautiful Charles Bridge to get there. 











When we got back, we ended up taking a nap, then going to dinner. We went to dinner at an old monastery that brews different beers, including IPAs. I got duck again, Tyler got rabbit, and we both got IPAs. This place was really far away, so we had quite a trek there and back, but the view was spectacular. I wish the camera would've captured it better. 






Prague is the most Americanized city we've been in so far. It's crazy how much you felt like you were in the Time Square of Prague when you were downtown. Everyone speaks English too. We have been lucky with that, but Prague was still the most Americanized. 

Every city is so different so it's hard to choose a favorite, but Prague certainly holds a special place in my heart.

Until the next city...

Peace & Love :)
