We just got back from Prague and had a great time. We met up with a friend from University of Delaware (lives in Prague) that also brought us to a few local restaurants and bars. Prague is not as overwhelming as Paris, but still has quite a bit to see. Many of the sites are in odd places and can be difficult to find. There were a few instances where Brian and I were walking in circles wondering if we should ask for directions and then we would realize that it was right above our head (the statue called "hanging out"). It can be found in the pictures we sent. The weather was very cold and windy, but beautiful trees and the sky was so bright even though the sun didn't come out too much. Windy and not too much sun. The food and drink was delicious and extremely reasonable compared to Geneva...but then again, most places are more reasonable. The view of this picture was taken from a tower in the cathedral. We had to climb 287 steps to get there. The Prague castle, Charles Bridge and National Museum (scene out of Mission Impossible movie) were very cool. Saturday night we ate at a really nice steak place. We were at this table that was right up against a fake tree in the "rain forest room". It took me a few minutes, but then I realized that it was hollow and had two iguana's in it! They couldn't get out, but the thought of eating 10 inches away from these things was making me nauseous. I got over it and then one of the lizards decided to jump 5 feet to the bottom of the cage and I screamed. Then it peeked its head over this ledge and stared at me while gnawing on some lettuce. Then it stuck it's long claws through the holes in the net covering the tree and climbed up the net really fast. Brian then said to me "do you want to change seats?" We moved! Sickkkk! Who wants to eat a nice meal in front of lizards????? Next stop is Budapest. Stayed tuned!
