To New Worlds! (To Praha!)



When our time in Berlin was up, we shipped out to the train station where we waited for a delayed train. After a LONG train ride, we were in Praha (Prague)!
After getting help to our hotel, we went out to Wenceslas Square to see the sights and for dinner. 
The next day, we took another free tour that started in The Old Town Square. I'll say this, Prague is beautiful. My history prof at FIE said that it was like visiting Disneyland beautiful. He was right. It's really the only way I can describe it. Berlin was all urban-like and kind of gray. This was colorful and beautiful. We went all over to the Jewish Quarter and touring the Prague Castle.
The next day, we set out for a couple different museums, a Communist Museum (sandwiched between a McDonalds and a Casino of all places) an alchemy museum and we crossed the Charles Bridge, which if you rub a part of a statue there, it will guarantee your return to Prague.
