you think I'm kidding.
trust me, i'm not. we went to the prague castle, which was very exciting and decided to go into one of the cathedrals. because we bought an all access pass we got to climb up one of the towers. ok, cool we thought, how high can a tower really be? apparently mel saw the 297 steps to the top sign before we started walking, but sasha and i miss this crucial piece of information. about half-way up the winding, cramped, stone staircase i almost had a panic attack. but it's cool we made it to the top... and we have the pictures to prove it.
overall, prague was fabulous. when we landed in prague after our massive travel day through brussels, we got in a van to take us to our hostel and drove down into the city just as the sun was setting. we couldn't have planned it better. our hostel was slightly sketch, but it was in a good location and we had a private room. that was clutch. it was also next to a night club. when we first got dropped off at the hostel there were 200 punkish czech teenagers standing on the street waiting to go inside. good times.
the next day, we had the first really warm weather of our trip - i got a bit of color, which means i turned slightly red, since i'm the whitest ever and don't tan. haha. We spent some time exploring old town square. I bought the most souvenirs, including a babushka doll. the doll is hand painted and pink. there are five little babushkas in all. I named them, (from biggest to littlest) Masha, Natasha, Sabrina, Yvette - who was our tour guide in the Jewish quarter and was little and cute like the babushka - and then Chloe.
Like I mentioned, we took a tour of the Jewish Quarter which has the most gorgeous synagogue I've ever seen. It was a good call getting a tour guide though cause there was a lot going on in the quarter and it was a little intense. Yvette was great though and knew exactly where to go. She gave us a whole history of the Jewish people in prague. It was really sad again to think about how many people died in the holocaust who lived in Prague. Yvette told us that 10,000 children were recorded as being taken to camps and only 350 survived. outrageous. hard to even comprehend entirely.
That night, we went to this restaurant and order a traditional Czech meal. We couldn't read the menu, but we just sort of went with it. We ended up with a full plate of chicken, spare ribs potatoes and other unidentifiable food.
The next day was the castle excursion culminating in the tower climb. That night we went to dinner at th is italian place and then decided it would be fun to go to Czech Casino. Sasha bought in to a hold 'em game. I have never felt so out of place in my life. The casino was small and obviously sketchy. There were a whole host of characters sitting at the table, very amusing. Sasha had to buy in twice, but she ended up coming up about 30 bucks on top of both buy ins... nicely done. We were there til about 2 in the morning good times.
The next day we left for Cesky Krumlov... we had the worst travel day thus far. We encountered really step, speeding escalators, bitchy Czech bus station employees who didn't speak english - i got in a screaming match with one of them - a cab driver who didn't want to talk to me even though i obviously tried to make conversation, but got really happy when we applauded him for finally getting us to the right bus station - and finally more sketchy czech bus employees and finally ending up on a bus to Cesky Krumlov that made stops in the most random little places ever. The country side of the Cezch Republic looks kind of like Maine - haha who wouldve thought?? Now we are in Cesky Krumlov. Couldn't be happier. Good times....
much love, more later - lindsey
