Ahoj Prague

We departed Berlin on the 14th May (we were a bit sad to leave Berlin, as we had enjoyed it so much) and arrived in Prague after our 5 hour journey by train.  After spending about half an hour in the main station trying to work out the zones and where to buy our tickets from, we were on our way arriving at our destination with few arguments.  We are staying in Nove Mesto (New Town) and we have been here for 3 days now - enjoying all the delicious food and beer.

On our first night we went to Pivovarsky Dum - a small microbrewery just a block from where we are staying.  We tried 0.5L of Štěpán each, which is a classic style czech pale lager with our meals - it was delicious.

Yesterday, we spent our day at the Czech Beer Festival in Letnany. Once we figured out where to buy a ticket from and that we needed a day ticket we were on our way.

We arrived quite early, not knowing what time it opened.  During our wait we came across some English lads from Liverpool on a stag night.  We enjoyed their company for most of the afternoon/evening before we parted ways to go home.
The beer festival was great and so was the food. We drank about 4-5 litres of beer each!

Today, we spent the day walking around Stare Mesto (Old Town) soaking up the beautiful architecture and old facades. We then had some lunch at Pastacaffe - great pasta dishes. Then for dinner we ate at U Pravdu which is just downstairs from where we are staying.  David enjoyed some pork ribs (1kg) and I a sirloin with potatoes, garlic, onion, bacon & cheese in a scallop pan with 0.5L of Pilsner Urquell (seems to be a popular beer in Prague). Again, very delictable, but oh, so very full.

Tomorrow, we head to Kutna Hora.
