What is there to say about Prague? I have mixed feelings. On the one hand, its got some of the most beautiful buildings I have ever seen. On the other hand, there are so many tourists that coming from Eastern Europe, I felt almost disgusted. I know I'm a tourist, but these people will pay 3 dollars for a bottle of water, and that's a little weird.
We stayed at "the Clown and Bard" hostel, which was alright, though it was full of what Sam call's "Bros." They are usually American, wear sandals, baseball cap, and board shorts. There was a bar downstairs, and even though our room was on the fifth floor, we could here the "chug! chug! chug!" at 8:30 pm. Oh well.
I would reccomend that everybody visits Prague, its just as beautiful as any Western European city, and if you stay out of the tourist zones its much cheaper. There is also a TV tower with space baby statues on it. Don't believe me? Check the pictures. I didn't believe it at first, but there were space baby statues. And no explanation why. Oh well.
There is also Prague market, which is now run
by Vietnamese, we needed a new daypack and got ripped off because of our poor bargaining skills, its our own fault, but I got a new World Cup 2006 wallet for a good price. Another highlight was a czech cafeteria where we got some unidentified glop and dumpings for about 2.50, i think the sauce had meat in it, but i couldn't taste the texture or see any so its okay in my book. It was very good.
Bye Prague!
