Prague! This whole trip we have been hearing about how beautiful Prague is, and how we just MUST go there.. Well we can officially say that, this place is worth the hype! What an extraordinary city! The old buildings are without a doubt some of the prettiest we have seen since being in Europe. Each one just seems to be seeping with culture and history. Not to mention the wide array of colors! White, blue, yellow, green, the buildings seem to make their very own rainbow here. A rainbow.. Perfect segway into the weather, which has been raining and cold! Such a change from all the other cities so far. But the change is kinda nice, gives us a chance to bring out our hoodies and jeans. The weather hasn't stopped us from seeing this great city though, today after a nice continental breakfast here at our... Big, somewhat dirty, full of character hostel, we treked through the sprinkles and up to the top of a hill where we came to the Palace. We forgot the name of it, but it's quite famous, and for good reason, it's beautiful! We then decided to get our 'art' fix by stopping in at a museum, The Museum of Torture ; ) it was quite educational, yet somewhat grotesque lol we then wandered a little more before coming back for a nice nap.  It was evening by this time, so we headed out for a little dinner,  and wouldn't you know it, we ran right into a little festival, the international folklore festival! Josh was so excited he could hardly stand it!  : ) we got some cheap sausage and pop corn, and grabbed a few bears and listened to the music! A great day here in Prague. Oh, I almost forgot something worth noting. One of our dorm
mates is a fifty year old man, lovely fellow, but he enjoys sleeping in the nude... So Josh, with all his luck, was fortunate enough to wake up to this guy crawling off his top bunk, butt naked!!! Needless to say, just wasn't all to enthralled with a full moon at 7am lol
anyways, that just about does it for today... Our trip is winding down, but don't fret, we still got plenty of adventure left!
