Botel Ristorante Matylda Prague

... the stained glass windows that covered every wall. It truly was impressive.

Eventually we were completely pooped and we sat on a wall with a view overlooking the city before deciding to find dinner and head home.



I was in favor of Gabe trying Beef Goulash as it seemed to be on every menu ...

... um punhado de palavras resumem muito bem a capital da República Tcheca como por exemplo "muito bonita", "linda", "Paris do leste europeu".Mas simplificado demais fica sem graça demais.Preferi ...

... to go to the five storey club we'd heard so much about! Our night at the club wa unreal!!! It is so huge and we had the best night!!!! So many aussies there too which was cool :) When we headed back i was drunk enough and filled with confidence (nic is so complementary when shes drunk he he!!) that i sat and chatted to the cute receptionist! What happened next will die with me and Nic (at least all the details) but suffice to say when we checked out the next day and tried ...

... 3 stories below the ground...and EVERYONE was chain smoking, so I felt like I was chainsmoking 30 cigarettes at the same time because in this dungeon, obviously there wasn't the best ventilation, but other than that, a killer atmosphere...beers (GOOD beers) were 1.25 US dollars. Met one of the poets named Lucious, a guy with only one hand, dreadlocks, and a 6 inch long beard...bought his book :-) Met a couple other ...

... by quite a large number of other churches spread out around the very top of the sloping district.

But it is parks that I naturally seem to gravitate to when exploring a city, and Prague’s greenbelt continued along the top of the hill above the river to the east of the castle for a considerable distance.

In a bid to escape the inflated prices of the tourist centre, I was glad to run into a small neighbourhood restaurant and bar near the Florenc ...

... consisted of meat. It was very pretty, and very festive with the Christmas market. After dinner we wandered past the theatre and across the Charles Bridge before returning to our hotel. The next day we came back into town to explore a bit further. We saw the astronomical clock strike on the hour, causing lots of little figures the appear behind a window and a skeleton to ring a bell. We then decided to climb ...

... there also. I had beers, water, and a huge plate of food all for under $10 (you pay for water in Europe for those who don't know). Just as I was getting ready to leave, the waitress brought out a medieval hanging hook to the table near mine. Then she attached a hanging assortment of meats. But wait, she then lit a cup of alcohol on fire and proceeded to pour it over the meat, cooking/heating it. It was just crazy to see this right there at this table. Ok, off to view some ...

... Czech literature from the 9th to 18th centuries. The Library's "Theological Hall" is unlike anything that I have ever seen in my life. It is the most beautiful library/study that I could ever imagine. It is known for its fine stucco work & 18th century paintings and frescos. What a day huh?? I think I may have overdone it just a tad, but it was well worth. Needless to say, I am a little tired - So, it is time for Aaron to catch a few winks...

... more impressive than what I got. I wanted a bit of the old Colonial spirit. A glass of Brandy and a chat about the King. Or even a can of coke and a chat about football would have done. Instead, the only two staff members I saw when I was there were both locals. Anyway, there was an unpleasant abundance of British people in the waiting room, so I got my fix. I had to go across the street for passport photos, and then come back armed with 1500 crowns (thirty quid). Then ...

Quiubos... Se me va acabando el tiempo en Praga y les cuento que tomé una decisión: me quedo ilegalmente en este país. Bueno, ojalá fuera fácil pero sé que tengo que volver por un tiempo más largo. Me queda ya menos de una semana y arranco. Duro porque estoy super adaptado y he conocido una gente increíble, pero sigo, así que el próximo correo no sé desde donde lo escriba ni cuándo, asi que aprovecho para mandarles unas ...
