Prague – Day 1 – Part 2

Standard

Location | Little Town Budget Hotel – Prague

So concludes day 2 of my Prague adventure. It’s been really great here. There’s so much to see that I’m kind of regretting only spending 2.5 days here! After finishing up the rest of Little Quarter, Ngoc and I decided to cross the Charles Bridge into Old Town.

So in the less than 24 hours I’ve been here, I’ve already taken over 1600 pictures… Uh oh. Luckily I have 18gb of memory with me… unfortunately… I won’t have enough space on my computer, so I’ll have to work on figuring out a way to get all the pictures (ok, not all 1600, a selection) onto Flickr and so on.

Anyway, Old Town was amazing. We walked around for awhile before we arrived at Old Town Square. There were amazing views of Kinsky Palace, the Tyn Church and we also saw the astronomical clock.

We walked until my feet were completely dead. Old town is very beautiful. There are a lot of little alleyways to see and some of them are even deserted so you can sneak in a great picture.

Then we made our way back across the Charles Bridge into Little Quarter. The sun was setting, so we had some great shots of the pink sky behind Prague Castle.

Afterwards we had dinner (which was very expensive btw). One thing I dislike about Prague is touristy-ness of the prices for food. The food isn’t anything special and should not be priced as it is… I expect NYC style meals for what I’ve been paying for grilled fish or roasted duck (which was very gamey).

I am saving my money for Rome and eating my weight in gelato. So… it’s unfortunate that I’m spending a fortune on Prague

My pictures will be up on Flickr soon – so check them out – Prague Day 1 – A Selection!
