Prague

With an early flight out of Munich, it was off to Prague. By noonish we had dropped off our luggage and were ready to see the sights. A short ride on the subway and we were near Old Town Square. What a view from the Town Hall tower and the clock even has a sort of “show” on the hour. Unimaginable, it was worse than the Glockenspiel! Really not worth a trip to the square on its own. While we were in the square, the 10th Cultural Festival was taking place and we got to see some children doing local dances. The afternoon was just spent wondering the streets. The city is a great place just to wonder and explore. We ran across a bike tour that we decided to do on Sunday and this amazing Belgium chocolate shop, the Gold Pralines.

By recommendation, we headed to the U Prince hotel’s rooftop bar to view the evening sunset before going downstairs for dinner. Number 74 on the menu was chicken! This might not seem like a great feat, but chicken isn’t a big item over here to my dismay.

People here aren’t as friendly as Germany. The guy at the information desk at the subway doesn’t sell tickets, doesn’t give change and doesn’t help you figure out the ticket you need. Not sure what they are paying him for.
