Praha what??

Amsterdam was super. We both agree that this is a must see for everyone. The buildings are adorable and every street has a canal which adds to the fabulousness. Be warned that perviness lurks around every corner. There are countless sex shops, sex museums, statues, not to mention the whole red light district with the pretty ladies.

We left Amsterdam in the evening on a train. We met some girls from California who we shared a cabin with. They were very funny one of which accidently booked the wrong date and was a stowaway. The train staffer came in to check our tickets and we couldn't even look him in the eye. The whole thing was hilarious. He didn't speak much english and was very confused my her ticket but couldn't seem to pinpoint what was wrong with it. (The day was correct, it was the month that was wrong.) We all kept asking him questions to distract him and he completely ignored us. It was one of those awkward moments that you have to ask yourself, or your travel companion, "did that just happen?" He never figured it out and she safely and miraculously made it to Prague!

So we get into the train station with no sleep, haven't brushed our teeth and aching backs. The train station was the weirdest thing. There was no one there! We got cash out and tried to buy coffee and juice and they wouldn't take our cash, the bills were apparently too big. We later did some calculations to figure out it was the same as trying to use a $20.00. We thought that was funny too. So we're at the train station with no way to get on the metro because we don't have coins and no one will help us. This is not a good start...

We get out our lonely planet to do a little research on taxis in Prague only to find out that they are so dishonest that they had to make a law about ripping off tourists. This makes us feel less than comfortable but at this point we have no options. We get a cab and our driver rips us off. Kristy, being the map wiz that she is, looked at the map and discovered he was driving us around the block. It gets better....

At this point all we want is a bed to crash in. We get to our hostel, find our room which up like 18 flights of stairs and go in, its trashed!! The bed is dirty and there is pee, straight urine, all over the toilet. They told us that check out was at 11 and it was only 11 at this point so we went to go eat and wander the streets until they had a chance to clean it. Let me remind you we still haven't brushed our teeth.

We walked around Kristy was cross eyed from lack of sleep and I was delirious. In our walk Kristy noticed a menu that looked good. She was so excited! "It's all American food!" she exclaimed. (we were at the hard rock!) We decided to try to rally with a drink. Kristy sneakily ordered chocolate cake and sang to me. It was very sweet. good friend.

We went back to our hostel to find the room still messy. Long story short apparently a homeless man had been making it his home, getting in and out through the window that was broken. Kristy got us another room that is much better and actually has a sweet view out the window of a very cute little street. The room however has a queen bed, one bed, so we're calling it our honeymoon suite. Last night we got very drunk in it whilst sharing headphones, playing drinking games, making funny videos, and pretending we were having a party.

Then we had drinks and food (we went back to the hard rock!) and called it a night.

Today we got up and went and had coffee and hit up the grocery store. That was actually pretty cool. It was underground and very cheap. We got a lot of food and waters for like 10 bucks. (with our calculations this may be a little off) We went up to a park and wrote in our journals. It was very euro and nice to be back in the sun. (Amsterdam down poured)

Tomorrow we are going to do some sight seeing. We are going to the castle, petrin tower, and john lennon wall. (and celebrate the birth of Kristy Bre!!)
