Tuesday - another boring day, had to work, but was done at 4. Matt and
I decided to try a walking tour. Unfortunately (not really) the only
evening walking tours are pub crawls. So we
signed up, and went to
dinner before the crawl. Ate outside on a patio at an Italian place in
Old Town Square - Matt had chicken - I had fettucini. Nothing Czech
about the food but the view was incredible.
After dinner we met
our guide for the tour in front of the
horse in Wenceslas Square.
Turns out there's
7 of us - a couple from England (the guy was a rugby
player who has had his nose broken so many times there is no cartilage
left), a Canadian couple that now teach school in Dubai (pretty noble),
and a mattress salesman fron Pennington, NJ. No lie. He originally
said he was in "home furnishings", but when pressed for detail he said
"specifically, I'm in mattresses". Wow.
So, Matt didn't drink,
and since I paid for it already I had 2 beers for everyone elses 1. I
thought I handled it pretty well, think I had 9 before it was all
over. We ate in one bar where we descended 2 stories underground into
a cellar that use to store potatoes 600 years ago. Matt had fried
cheese, apparently a staple of Czech teenagers. I had the goulash and
dunplings. And if you're paying attention and still reading, yes, we
had already eaten dinner.
Prague is beautiful at night, glad we did the walk.
