Prague Diaries. 30th May 2009 16:10 - Prague local time - Got onto Bus 119 from the airport to Metro Station A. - Bought a 3 day ticket for 330CZK = £11.00. Unlimited travel on busses, trams and metro. (Awesome!) 16:15 - Still on the bus. AJ pointed at McDonalds. (McD Junkie!) - The weather is rainy. Not too happy bout that.- AJ pointed at a signboard. 2 naked women advertising a night club. Welcome to Europe. 16:20 - At Dejvicka Metro station. Waiting for a train to go to the Muzeum stop. - Dehydrated. Went to buy some mineral water but managed to buy sparkling water as I could not read Czech. Only 15CZK though! 22:50 - Back from our night out! Went to New Town around Wenceslas Square. Watching Simpsons in Czech. LOL! - By the way, the Hotel is lovely! Everything the website promised. I was a bit paranoid. However it was a lovely 5 Star hotel. King sized bed. Mini bar and lush tub, bell boys and a nice view. Thank god. Nothing dodgy. -Back to Wenceslas Square. I was taken away with the amazing architecture! Wenceslas square is a long street with a really posh Museum/ Opera House on the top of it. - My stomach was growling around 18:30ish. Some how got really lucky and found a traditional Czech restaurant off Wenceslas Square. Went to Bredovsky Dvur. Food was FAB. - People were staring! They were just looking at me as if I was an alien. Started telling AJ that people are looking at me weird. Sat down at the table at the restaurant and the waiter was VERY interested in where I was from. -Told him 3 times but he couldn't understand me. Wrote it down and he went OOOH!! He then said I was very exotic. So maybe they were staring at me because I looked different. *tee hee* - I order a kilo of roast pork knee. Bloody massive!!! It was served on a chopping board with a skewer across the meat. Only 175 CZK = £6.50. You can NEVER get that in the UK. - OMG. I had beer. Had a mug of Pilsner Urquell. Beer is dirt cheap in Prague. I manage to finish half a mug. - AJ was overjoyed with his massive mug of Pilsner Urquell and a gigantic plate of mix meat platter. Okay, too lazy to go on. Photos will be my words.
In Prague castle.
Old town square. My fav!
The Cabaret room. Lovely music, good company.
I got a traditional czech marionette for 620CZK = £22.00
