Prague



I know this is a bit late, but I thought I'd do a post about my 4 day trip to Prague with my friends Liz, Ana and Melissa in mid-December. It was an interesting trip, during which I learned many things:


1 Prague can be very cold during the winter


2 It's generally not a good idea to argue with an already strong-minded friend while she's on her period. In fact, a lot of the time it may be better not to talk to her at all


3 If, at any time, you find yourself separated from your friends in Eastern Europe, it's not necessarily because they absentmindedly left you-- and if you decide to just go on without them they might report you missing to the Embassy because they're afraid that you got sold into the Eastern European sex trade


Another note on the cold: I packed for the trip 3 sweaters so that I'd have a little variety in my dress. I ended up wearing all three of them at once for the duration of the trip, and it still didn't keep me from occasionally going numb.


Prague was an unbelievably beautiful and really cheap city. At every corner there was some ornate building or other, usually housing an inexpensive restaurant (not really).


But one of the most memorable things that I saw in Prague might be the English language menu of the restaurant by our hostel. Hot spiny wine, anyone? How about a sundae caress?
