O brother where am I?: Prague

Well, before I jump into Prague, let me just give a warning to Matt and Sarah. First it struck Mandy, then it struck us, so don't let it happen to you all. What might I be talking about? Well, we went to catch our plane this morning and everything was going to plan. Got on the plane in Prague, flew to Paris. Navigated the enormous Charles De Gaul airport, and boarded the plane to head to Atlanta. About 2.5 hours later, we finally left the runway in Paris. Well, that little 2.5 hour tour of Paris' runway caused us to miss our connection to louisville, so we got lucky and got the last louisville bound plane of the day at 9:45. So be careful in Dublin, you two are next.

But now to more important things, PRAGUE. Praha (as it's known to the natives) was an absolutely amazing city. Everything from the history, to the architecture, to the cobblestone streets on virtually every street, there is virtually nothing about Prague that was not to like. I take that back, there was something not to like, and that was the weather. It put a damper on our stay there, literally. It rained both days we were there, VERY hard at times. But with the bad come the good, and the good is temperatures. It was like fall here in the states, perfect weather at about low 60's for a high, and those were a welcome change from what we'd been used to.

Some highlights of our time there were we went on another two sandeman's tours (the free walking tour and the paid tour of the castle), and they were both great again. Maybe not as great as the ones in Munich, but still pretty good. We went to a black light theater that Prague is known for and it was interesting to say the least. Especially the end where it turned into a pseudo cabaret show. And on top of all of that, we had some good food. Scratch that, really good food (at least I thought). It was typical Czech food that was heavy, but I really enjoyed it. The beer wasn't as good as germany, but i guess not much is better.

Well, i'm gonna sign off here now and let the Durham's take back over for the last leg of the trip. They're all alone now, so it'll be up to them to keep us updated. We had a blast and even though we wish it could've been longer, this crazy travel day absolutely wore us out and it's good to be sleeping in our own bed. Till next time...
