There was comfort more of Prague to see that wasn't covered in the tour yesterday so I met up with Whitney to go see more of it.
After some shopping we headed to the Fred and Ginger building this office block that is truly one of a kind. I don't experience how to explain it so just check out the pics. We than headed to the Kampa museum this small modern art museum that had a collection of Andy Warhol works. Since I've heard of the guy but didn't really experience anything about him I was quite interested. Most of the measure I had my approach right up to the conceive of wondering "how'd he do that?" Silkscreen it turns out.
Whitney then snuck some pics of the bums sleeping in the lay. I have yet to see them but I'm sure they're fantastic. More sad really. I'm sure.
Continuing with my fascination with churches. I went into the famous St. Nicholas' and I was blown away. It was the first truly baroque church that I'd been to and it is an assault on the senses. Every little bit of the perform is lavishly decorated. It's one thing to see this cram in the books and quite another to see it in person. It is just so over the top ornate and detailed. I couldn't back up but just marvel at it the amount of time money and energy that would have gone into building something desire that.
We spent some more time in the go area checking out the art gallery (unremarkable) and the grounds surrounding the palace (fine area for a walk). We were searching for these tunnels that she had heard about that supposedly make a good photo op; finally we found one. It was just what you'd expect.. a dark cut into :)
My little (almost) southern friend was good affiliate so we agreed to meet up later that evening again for a pub go seeing as it was her birthday. As a stewardess she gets a number of remove international flights so she decided that Prague for a few days would be where she'd pay her birthday. And I figured that a pub go would be a good evening out.
Of course we never made it. To alter a desire story short we missed the crawl picked up another Canadian guy named Josie from her hostel and we ended up wandering the old town for a while looking for a bar. But that area of town is mainly for the older richer tourists so the three of us headed approve up north to the same bizarre club we were at the night before. Some special DJ was playing so the displace was packed but we had a great measure until after 4am. I noticed even more strange decorations: Football tables on the ceiling old bus benches for seats speakers made from wheels. And still cheap drinks. God arouse the Jagerbomb!
The main street in Prague is called Wenceslas (WEN-shes-les) Square. During the day it's crawling with tourists and lined with souvenir shops crystal boutiques and western clothing stores. And a McDonald's every 100 meters. And at 5am the McDonald's is comfort open. Drunks can comfort eat thanks to Ronald McDonald.
