This won’t be going up until late, because the internet sucks hardcore tonight. Hopefully it will get better by morning, or else I’m going to have to make a special trip to the lobby to send this off! I also can’t post my pictures on facebook or here, properly, either. UGH.
Anyways, today!
We tried to have an early start this morning – I woke up at 7, waited for the shower till 7.30, then got Maria up at 8. We then went down to breakfast, but I had been kept awake for a long time last night by our noisy hostelmates – two who left today, one is still around, but I can deal with his stupid radio better than talking/yelling/throwing shoes. Maria’s lent me her soundproof headphones.
Anyways, I went for a nap while Maria wrote a non-drunk blog post about yesterday, and we dawdled until noonish. Then we took the tram up to the Charles Bridge and walked around. The bridge was beautiful, and horrifically crowded, but still worth it. We then walked from the bridge to the Jewish quarter, where we saw all of the old synagogues from the outside, and the old Jewish cemetery. It was really pretty, but the synagogues were rather expensive to get in, so instead we shopped in little souvenir shops – Maria got some postcards and we looked for a glass frog thermometer.
After that we decided to eat at the Kafka Cafe, which was cute and quaint. We had a nice, healthy meal there, then we moseyed on over to the Wenceslaus Square and toured the Kafka House. It was pretty cool, but pretty much everything Kafka has been torn down. Oh well.
After more souvenir shops, we settled into a Cuban cafe and had drinks which cost entirely too much. So we decided not to eat dinner out and just came home – Maria walked, I took the tram.
Tomorrow, Mom and Dad are getting in town – so I’m going to the airport to get them and hopefully that won’t be too much of an adventure.
This internet crap is throwing off my blogging skills. Excuse the lame post. <3
