prague part III

HEY HEY! the last installment of the prague portion of our vacation. i may completely finish the eurotrip recap this year! /sarcasm/ thanks for bearing with me on this! if you missed part I or part II there ya go :)

let’s see. . . oh yes! i was on a mad search to find my mother a decorated egg (my great grandpap used to make them at easter) and i stumbled upon one that matched my outfit perfectly! crazy!

i.am.an.oddball. anyhow, we headed back and showered ourselves from our long walk in the sun and wanted to try some traditional czech food. we read about a place called ‘lokal‘ and thought it fit the bill perfectly! it was also recommended to us by some people we met at a pub the night before. i had cabbage salad & beef tartare (big surprise there right haha)

the food was spot on…however i could have done without the RAW cloves of garlic haha…apparently, the czechs use it as a condiment and rub it on bread and such?! don’t worry, we chased down the dragon breath with a couple shots of local plum brandy. yes. that is a double shot by the way. holla! Na zdraví!

the next day, we took a walk to kill some time before our flight to paris. our destination was the famous fred and ginger house by frank gehry! this house sticks out like a sore thumb amidst the baroque and art nouveau architecture that peppers prague. i spotted the most beautiful hotel boat! how cute are the flowers & bike?

and the dancing house! crazy huh?

i didn’t want to kill all of your browsers so just click the photo to enlarge :) we will wrap things up in the city of light! stay tuned!

    I don’t do well with raw garlic at all. Neither does Ella, yet she eats it all of the time with me in hummus. Ha

    That house IS crazy! And so it the egg that matches your outfit! AND you are so adorable. That’s all!
