Prague – Day 2

Location | Little Town Budget Hotel – Prague

Just got back from a day of walking and walking and more walking. Let me tell you: don’t bring new shoes on a trip. No matter how much I try to get them fixed, they are not comfortable. I already bought a new pair of shoes, but they are proving to not be that great either. So let me laugh and say that I will be purchasing a pair of sneakers here.

Well, we crossed the Charles Bridge and went to Au Gourmande for breakfast. Ngoc ordered a salmon croissant sandwich, while I ordered a chocolate croissant and a banana chocolate crepe. I was obviously in a sweet mood.

Afterwards we walked down to Wenceslas Square where we shopped. They have this huge store called “New Yorker” here which is kind of like a Forever 21/H&M hybrid.

We ate lunch a Au Gourmande (another location) and let me tell you, I love LOVE French bakeries.

Afterwards we walked around the Jewish Quarter. It was incredibly eerie due to the fact that there were only about a handful of people outside. Very quiet.

The day was a little hot, but not bad in the shade. I’m praying Budapest and Rome have plenty of shade.

We’re off to the train to overnight it to Budapest in about 20 minutes.

I have a good grasp of the native Taiwanese language, I studied French for 5 years, and I studied Japanese for 3 years at a college level. I love languages, but it is tough when I don't have the chances to utilize them in an everyday environment. I have so many different interests, from art, music to technology. I love things like reading the news or just hanging out with friends. I like to try new things, especially new foods or going to unknown places.
