After arriving in Prague, we hiked with our bags about 20 minutes uphill to our hotel reception, checked in...then were told that we needed to hike another 10 minutes, also uphill, to our room. Did I mention how heavy our bags are? Curse you H&M and late night delirious packing! Sending a shipment of stuff home is looking pretty good about now. We ended up having such a cute hostel, with a balcony overlooking the monastery and green hills in the Mala Strana district of Prague...it was amazing and so relaxing, thanks to Nathan!
I cannot begin to describe how incredibly beautiful the city of Prague is...I think it is one of my favorite cities I have ever been to. Art Nouveau and Art Deco buildings and interiors everywhere...we took SO many pictures, it is ridiculous. It is such an artsy and inspiring city. At night, when it is all lit up, it looks and feels just like Disneyland! We were smiling and happy the whole time.
We wandered around admiring the sites and architecture, took billions of pictures, went to the Museum of Decorative Arts (which was phenomenal, by the way), visited the cathedrals and castle, drank delicious Czech beer, ate lots of sausages, had the yummiest thai food two nights in a row, celebrated Nathans 30th the proper way at a fancy restaurant overlooking the Charles Bridge (and we managed to spend all his Birthday money there - thanks wonderful SC friends!!), and ended up running into a friend of mine from High School...so crazy! We had drinks with them and spent some time catching up, it was so fun!
We had such a great time and are sad to leave, but are excited for our next destination... Cesky Krumlov.
