Walking and Dining: Prague

Our three days in Prague were very fun - the weather held up with only a few raindrops in between which allowed for easy walking and exploring.  I admit that I was having a bit of deja vu walking around from my past visit during choir tour.  There wasn't a trip to Plzen in the cards for this trip.

We were able to visit some excellent restaurants along with the Palace, Dvorak Museum, and the main square and clocktower.

Pod Vezi - traditional Czech menu (site)

Sad Man's Tongue Bar and Bistro - Kudos to owner Steve who was kind to chat with us and share some great recommendations (site)

Wine O'Clock - hidden and well worth the find - reservations needed in advance! (site)

We chose to stay the Charles Bridge Palace (through Booking.com) - very close to the Charles Bridge and within easy walking distance of the Metro.  The room was average; shower was excellent though the furniture was old and the inner room did not allow for any air movement whatsoever, meaning it was generally hot.

It was fun to be back.  Looking forward to another visit soon.

Thanksgiving Trip 2017: Prague

Departure day!  I'm excited to be heading out for this year's Thanksgiving trip which will take us to Prague via Switzerland.  It's been a long semester and we were once again able to fit in a trip over this time period for an amazing deal.  The weather might be a bit on the cool side, though I'm not anticipating any major flight problems at this point.  Ready for snow in the Alps!
