Prague 6/28

On our first full-day in Prague, we slept in until at least noon, made use of the hotel’s health club to sweat out some of the pivo that went down the hatch the night before, and then headed out to the old town to find a good seat for some quality people watching… and drink more local pivo. The euro crowd that combs these streets may even beat out the scene on Sunday evenings at Poseidon in Del Mar, where the people watching has already proven legendary. After dinner where we had some traditional Czech food, we found a great bar called Kosica. It’s in old town, but is mainly a popular local bar. We have quickly adjusted our living schedule to accommodate the locals… which means lunch around 4PM, dinner around 9PM, and then hit the bars around 10:30PM… meaning that we are pleased to sleep in until, at least, noon. So we got to Kosica around 11 or so. The Czech listen to some funky music, and have even funkier dance moves… actually, it’s more like just jumping around and flailing your arms. (Brenton, you would no longer make fun of Renee’s dancing skills if you saw this bunch. “It looks like a bunch of retards trying to hump a doorknob!”). Anyway, I did meet one of the hottest girls I’ve ever seen, she was even brunette! I also met her hot blonde friend, Helena, and her grenade friend, “what’s-her-face”. Luckily, Josh was a real trooper and was willing to jump on the grenade after Justin and I ran for the trenches. That night at Kosica was a blast and by the time we emerged from the bar, it was 4:15 and light out! Apparently, it stays light until 9:30 and gets light sometime before 4:15. And that meant that we didn’t get up until 2:30 or 3PM today. Our goal for today is to meet up with my friend Mat (from school), his wife (Melissa), and join the “Euro Fest” in the Old Town Square for the Euro Cup Final… can’t wait!
