Malá Strana

Sorry for the lack of posts recently. We went to a bar crawl on our first weekend here and ended up getting covid so spent the majority of last week doing nothing. The other day we emerged from the apartment for a day a sightseeing and saw the Charles Bridge, Prague's narrowest Street and a tower of books. All three were extremely busy and pretty underwhelming but if I didn't do them I'd feel guilty about it so it was still worth. While we were waiting in the cue for the tower of books I went for an explore and stumbled upon the main christmas markets of prague!! It was awesome, I didn't get many pictures because I was rushing to get back but it was so festive and there were people everywhere selling Christmas ornaments, gingerbreads and warm drinks. I also saw the astronomical clock again which I remembered being quite unremarkable from music tour but I was surprised to see its only about 5 metres off the ground, I remembered it being taller. The snow from the first week has all melted away now and today was the first day that our snowman had completely disappeared. I've been starting to see a lot of christmas tree markets getting set up over the past couple of days which is so sick. There's some great Asian food around our house which has been coming in great while we've been sick, we've been able to buy a nice nourishing bowl of soup for $4. Last weekend we met up with a dude we met at the bar crawl (he's from Perth here working with his dad) and went to a rave which was super fun :)).

Lots to do and not much time left here now so expect lots of posts!!Lue lisää
