A trip to Czech Republic

despite the tiredness after spending 2 freakin nites in Frankfurt-Hahn airport>Dortmund airport>chased out fromt airport to the streets>mcD...we finally reached Prague International Airport.

10 hearts were already screaming Jolin Tsai's song "Prague Square"!


after settling down in our hostel,we went around searching for traditional czech food...
-qris+me shared this and we couldn finish it XD and this is supposed to be a 1person meal (-___-"') price: 300czk.
-the other 4gals shared this.price:1200czk

1GBP = 39.70 czk...u do the math.
didn't expect food is so cheap in czech...and most importantly for the guys...CHEAP+BIG+MEAT!da guys came out satisfied...and happie.while the herbivorous wern and me smell trouble XD
- the galz-
-the guyz-

when heesheong our czech tour guide announced tht we've already reached the legendary prague square,i was like..."heck?!" o.O frankly i was a wee bit disappointed lor...ANYWAYS,yea..i went prague square,saw the astronomical clock,saw the Church of Our Lady before Tyn(someone said it looks like some fairytale castle where the bad fella live in)......

walked across the famous Charles bridge,da scenery there was nice...managed 2cure my disappointment abit lar XD then we visited the Prague castle...nice stuff,relatively cheap entrance fee compared to the Edinburgh castle's 11GBP but still feel abit conned.talkin about kiamsiap-ness...
