I didn't LOVE Prague. It was ok, I guess. A lot of that has to do with the fact that i spent most of the time sleeping. The other guys in our dorm had a running joke about how I was asleep all the time. Sometimes you just get tired man. I didn't pay them out about being mindless bogan drunks and thats because I understand that sometimes you just can't help who you are. Prague's reputation is that it is exceedingly pretty. while this may be true, what you don't hear is that it is a GIANT TOURIST TRAP. The old square was filled with beautiful buildings and crass tourist attractions. I also didn't like that Prague was filled with butloads of middle aged tourists. you know, the kind with beige pants and fanny packs. they walk really slow and stop without warning and often make whiney noises because really they would prefer to be in their middle american town so they knew where everything was. The other thing that made Prague utterly unbearable was the splitting headache i had from drinking terrible cheap vodka on the night of our arrival. Dear "FUN ROOM", you are not so fun the next day.

There were some pretty cool things though.
There was an AMAZING clock in the old square which, when it hit the hour, had a crazy little skeleton which started pulling a chain which made the bell toll. It was the best thing about the whole town.

These escalators were utterly terrifying. It went up like 7 storeys and was as fast as a rocket.
