Goodbye Prague

Goodbye Kateri, Hello fast food. I had my first foreign McDonalds today. I had a sausage McMuffin with lettuce, tomato, and big mac sauce. How bizarre. Prague was fun, but I think we ran out of sights to see, so it was time to go. Vienna is by far the most spectacular city that has ever been blessed by my presence. We’ll post pictures to show you the spectacularity. We’re past the half-way point, and six days from the journey home! Happy days to you all!

Tonight is our last night in Prague, so we are half way through our trip! I feel like we have been here forever already, and I can’t believe that we have two more cities to go. Besides being a little more touristy than I expected, Prague is just as beautiful as I always imagined it. I love walking over the Charles bridge early in the morning and seeing the fisherman in their little canoes and a group of swans floating lazily around with the gorgeous city in the background. It is just like what people envision when they think or a European city. Today we visited the national museum, which had an entire floor dedicated to rocks! We have visited many cafes, and had many tasty baked goods. We rode a little train up a big hill over looking the city to go to a mirror maze, which I have been looking forward to since we got here, only to find that it was closed! But we got a lovely view of the castle and the city, so it wasn’t all that bad. We also went to a torture museum, and well, it was a museum about torture, so you can imagine… the best part of Prague has been just walking around in the city and taking in all the sights. Vienna here we come!
Jessi-
