Prague

Welcome to Prague... a really beautiful city with great architecture and SHOPPING!!!!! It was a great trip to celebrate Josh and I's 4th Wedding Anniversary! It was a lot of fun. Day one of our trip we woke up at4:25 and almost missed the bus to the airport... we were running to the bus stop so therefore we forgot a lot of stuff like toothbrushes and other nessicities! But we made it!!! We went out to eat that night at a really nice restaurant and we had fresh seafood and what they mean by fresh seafood that it is raw!! The Lobster was really good, Josh though was in heaven he ate it the rest of it!! Then we went on a ghost tour of Prague. A cute fun little activity to do but it wasn't any true stories or anything it was a more funny than scary!! But a good time!!
Our second day was the busiest because we were leaving the next day to go home so we had to do everything in that time!! Let me tell you we did some walking!!! It took us 45 minutes to get to the castle!! We had to cross this beautiful bridge to get there it was so beautiful and the architecture on the bridge was beautiful Sculptures everywhere!! Once we got to the castle we went to the Cathedral that is inside of the Castle...This is the Beautiful streets of Prague leading up to the Castle!!! It is a nice hike but they town is so cute and close together!! Josh really liked this picture because it is call the Holy Trinity and there is clearly 3 images depicted in the picture on Jesus Christ being baptized and God looking down from heaven and the Dove as the Holy Ghost this picture was the oldest thing in the Cathedral and it dates back to the early 1400's.
We couldn't leave the Cathedral without putting a little holy water on our forehead and Josh giving a little confession!!




























On the tour of the Cathedral they had these little stairs that were in this room that is off side of the castle and we didn't think much of it!! So we were like lets go up these stairs just to see where they lead we thought it would only be made up one level and that is it... No it was 247 stairs and It was almost a mile high or maybe even higher I am not sure!! But it was a beautiful view... (I don't really know Josh told me and took this picture it was a little high for me but I did climb those stairs!)
The Final leg of our trip was a river tour at night of the city!! It included dinner it was so nice and what an experience watching them move us through some really tight spots on the river!! It was so much fun and a good experience but the food wasn't that good but it was fun!!!
