Czech Republic
Me and Julia got the morning train to Praha (Prague) but it takes a bit more than we were expecting and we arrived at 3 pm. The way was pretty nice and we knew one Mr. in your early 60 who had traveled around the world being a host, yes host, he works dancing with ladies in cruises where he has to dance "with the good , the bad and the ugly" like he said. He has in his passport over 50 deferents stamps for more than 30 countries that he had gotten for 8 years only.I knew it would be full of Brazilians but only in my 5th minute there I was in a queue for change some money in in that line had 5 people, 4 were Brazilians.
We got the metro to the hostel, the best hostel I've ever been, it has one backyard with some tables and one tend with a barbecue. We got one room which was like one apartment with kitchen and private bathroom. In the morning we had our breakfast in that garden with some animals, a dog and a hedgehog, Julia got crazy with that, she had never seen one before, neither in England.
The city is amazing, we went at night 3 times to see the Charles Bridge and Praha Castle illuminated. The castle is pretty nice but the view you have from there is amazing. There you can see all the city and inside the castle you could see museums and the house where Kafka lived for a while in the guardians house number 22, above his house has a museum where have lots of armors and one store where people can buy some armor like the original one.
We made one tour for the synagogues and in the cemetery were the jew was buried for ages, today that cemetery is the biggest concentration of headstones per square meter in the world. In the main square we went many times as well as the Charles Bridge, we saw twice the changing hours on the watch in the main square, were some of the sculptures move themselves every sound made by ring bell.
The Czech beer is good, probably the best of the world, but I know that have more good beers on Asia. I could say that is the best beer I've ever drunk but I'd drunk so much until got in Czech republic that I cannot say nothing, maybe because I'm used to get lock every night in Prague. We watched one mountain bike championship in the streets of the city drinking few beers, and that was really nice. Ok lovely beer they have there.
