Outing #2

Prague, Czech Republic! OK, so at the end of the Berlin trip (that Thursday, to be exact) myself, Gabbi, Mimi, Ricardo, Suzanne, and McKenzie all left that evening for Prague! We were all sooooooo excited!!! :) We packed our bags and left for the train station that would take us along to our next adventure. The ride into the country was beautiful - lovely landscape that was well taken care of. Arriving in Prague was like stepping foot into a fairy tale city - seriously. The structure and design of the buildings (the whole city actually) was built with so much detail into it, that even the pot hole covers has a nice design on them. I couldn't believe how well taken care of the city was in terms of its details and structure. We had spent our days visiting the tourist sites such as the Charleston Bridge, Old and New Town (lots of museums and tourist shops) and the Old Jewish Quarter. It's funny for the last one because on our final day Suzanne and I (Everybody else had left early to get back to Ireland) had accidentally stumbled into a 5k race that was going on haha! The nightlife of Prague was just out of this world. We went to a legitimate ice bar - you read that right - a bar made of actual ice!!!! Now we could only stay in there for 20 minutes, but it was sooo awesome having a drink and "chilling" (heh, get it?). After that we went to what is claimed to be biggest dance club in Europe - and boy was it fun! It had several floors in which each one was its own genre of music - now naturally I found myself in the "Oldies" section dancing to the greatest hits of MJ, Kool & the Gang, and other old time, funky stuff! Prague is a beautiful city that I seriously recommend to anybody to visit if they want a true, European experience.
