Mittwoch

3.31.10

We woke up bright and early to catch our train to Prague. After a nice, relaxing trip (with seats that were assigned, so no trouble there!) we arrived in Prague at lunch time. We caught a U-Bahn and a quick S-Bahn equivalent to our hotel, checked into our rooms, and headed to pizza for lunch (we were all quite hungry). After lunch we went on a tour of the city led by Max (our tour guide who spoke about 4 or 5 languages pretty well). We went to the main part of town and saw the building where the Defenestration occurred. We also saw the market that only comes around during holidays, which had cute little boutiques (and places to get Tredlo's- a tasty pretzel like snack). We then walked along the river to a cemetery for famous dead Czechs. Realizing we were short on time we hurried to the U-Bahn to meet Irina (the woman who helped us find places to eat, and recommended Max to us) to eat Czech cuisine, which was quite nice.
