Prague, Finally!

I am feeling really guilty, I have been back for about a week and a half from my trip, and I am just finally getting to posting! My trip was awesome! We saw and did so many great things in both Prague and Ireland. My next post will be all about Ireland. (I won't wait another week and a half)
The Czech Republic is a beautiful country! We had some pretty interesting experiences there. The language barrier wasn't too bad, meaning that quite a few people spoke English, not that we could even begin to understand Czech. Occasionally it was a bit of struggle, but we made due for the most part. We found that the people in Prague are pretty indifferent to tourists. They aren't outwardly rude, but they weren't incredibly accommodating either. With the exception of the man who ran our bed and breakfast, he was amazing! The food in Prague is not anything spectacular, they are into lots of grease and mystery meats! They are really big into sausages, too which I can't really understand. Prague was a gorgeous city, there are so many different types of architecture, it was very impressive. Warning, there are a lot of pictures here!
