Apartment Living in Praha

In Prague we stayed in an apartment - a nice change from hotel living.  We spent more time going to the markets to buy food to cook.  Here's some of what we found.


Here was our awesome kitchen!


Every morning the people we rented from brought us a breakfast basket of pastries, cheese, meats, and coffee.


This was our living room - lots of room to play!

Watermelon helped with the heat!  Yummy!

More berries to choose from...endless juiciness in our mouths!


Here's a view from our apartment...so cool!

I Partied Like a Rock Star!

 Good thing I had a place to crash whenever!  I made good use of this sleeping gizmo...

  When I wasn't sleeping, I was on the run!  Daddy had his running flip flops on!


Sometimes I had one too many...


Daddy also made a soft bed. My favorite place to sleep really.


Sunglasses made everything even better - including my outfit!

 European sausage is my new favorite.


When there was nothing else to do, I danced.

PRAGUE WAS AWESOME!!!

Daddy Couldn't Get Enough Beer!


 One just wasn't enough!  It was hot afterall...

When beer wasn't available, he found some pretty ladies to visit with!

Praha - A Beautiful Dreamy City

Prague was a beautiful city - our favorite of the whole trip.  We stayed right in a city center and walked all over the place.  It was hot, but we had a wonderful time.  The architecture was stunning.

Here I am climbing a gazillion stairs to see the sites over Praha.

 

Here was the view of the castle from our apartment.  This was at twighlight on a zoom so hard to see, but really an awesome view from our balcony!


We did a lot of walking in this city - me in my hot pink stroller and mommy and daddy on foot.  There were bridges to cross, churches to see, and lots of people to look at!


These dark statues were all over the city, but mostly on the bridges.  They were huge and towered over us.

Even the buildings were covered in them!

The buildings had a lot of detail.  This was the big cathedral attached to the castle.

Here is the catle with the cathedral in the background.

Finally...we landed in Prague!

Where the Prague are We???

Halfway through our trip to Prague, the train stopped in the middle of a bunch of grass fields, with a couple of houses there, and someone came along and told us all to get out. We had no idea what was going on, but no one else seemed to know either! Daddy packed us up real quick and we headed towards...

That bus..."just get on the bus". Okay, so we did and made some new friends along the way as we all laughed at how crazy and random this was!

Then Michael Cera showed up...drinking a beer. "Get on the bus"!

We were wishing we were on that little bike!

We ended up at another train station and boarded the train there, headed for Prague. It all added a lot of fun to the day!!

Leaving Salzburg...On to Prague!!

We left Salzburg and hopped on our first Chezch train. Who knew this thing would be such an adventure! Here is our train sign...


Our cabin was clean, but this was our first sign that something was different - no airconditioning, just a couple of down sliding windows. And a little box car just for us!

This was the most rickety thing we were on. You could just hang your head out the window and check out the sites - at a very fast speed!

Check out this craziness!!!....
