The Beautiful Prague

When we asked our friends and other people who have traveled to Europe where to go, almost all of them said, "go to Prague, it is so beautiful!"

So, I added it to the itinerary. We are couch-surfing here like we did in Slovenia and it has been a great experience! We are about a 30 minute train ride outside the actual city of Prague, but neither Brian or I mind. 

Wandering the streets. It was strange to be in such a big city after going through Slovenia and Croatia. This is our first large city since Moscow. 

A street performer was creating these massive bubbles in the Old Town Square. Nice backdrop huh? The large church in the background is called Church of Our Lady before Tyn. Strange name, built in the 1400's. 

St Vitus Cathedral. The biggest and most important church in the country. This present cathedral was founded in 1344.

Inside was just as lovely as the outside.

View from the castle on the hill.

Dinner. I had traditional goulash, similar to beef stew. 

On the famous Charles Bridge, I will try to get a better picture of the bridge. 

Our new favorite desert. Trdelnik, a wonderful sweet dough with cinnamon and sugar.

We also went to a toy museum, but that deserves its own post. :) It was complete with a huge Barbie collection! Until then!
