Hey you guys!
Prague has been soooo crazy. I do not like it much at all, really. I keep telling my roommate that I want out of this absurd city.
Okay, so what happened?
Well, Prague is dark and dirty and dangerous looking. It seems that everywhere we go, we encounter the most scandalous people. Our first night here, we were accosted by some retired KGB Members in the subway station. They fined us for not validating our subway tickets. It was only like a 6 dollar fine, but NO ONE who got on the tram with us validated and that's why we didn't do it. Basically, someone called ahead of us because these overweight rental cops were waiting on us as soon as we got off. I was the last person off the subway and a big part of me just wanted to keep on walking past like I didn't know any crazy Americans, but I didn't know where in creation I was. At that time, I wasn't even sure how to get back to the hotel!
After that initial experience, Prague shaped up. It never lived up to its title as the most beautiful city in the world. Actually, Charleston looks better than Prague, lol. But our tour guide, Adela, was in our peer group and she made the best jokes ever. She also took us on the longest tour we have been on so far. I promise we walked around Prague for about six hours straight with very little rest. We saw the Saint Vitalis Cathedral and the Charles Bridge. Both are beautiful, by the way.
The weather in Prague has been great. Today Hannah and I are actually a wee bit hot roaming around in all these winter clothes.
I really haven't bought anything to bring home since I've been here, lol. I hope to see some stuff today, but we'll just wait and see what happens. Most things are overpriced and able to purchased at a wal-mart near you. So that's a major heads up for those of you expecting gifts, lol.
I miss everybody and wish all of you were here.
Yanilka, to answer your question more directly, I don't like Prague one tiny bit. And beer tastes as bad as it smells, in case you were wondering about that, lol. Hannah says alcohol is an acquired taste, I say it's garbage. Tomato/ Toma-toe.
Okay about the Penis Fountain. Europe is full of random art and one such piece is located off the Old Town Square. Literally, there are two statues of naked men, urinating. The water that spurts is actually coming from their penis'. It was crazy slack/sketch, but at the same time interesting/amusing because the best part is that one of the statues has a pelvic area that rotates, LOL. I about died when I saw it, so I threw an American dime in.
The food is pretty good in Prague and in Europe in general. Mostly we eat Italian. I know that sounds crazy, but trust me, it's good.
Under the close surveilance of the Stasi,
Ashley
