The second day we left around eleven from our hostel to take on the biggest site in Prague, its castle. After a few distractions including food, starbucks, watching the astronomical clock as the hour struck three, and stopping at a few of the shops. We stopped off at the Tyn church adjacent to the astronomical clock. The décor and architecture was by far the best I have seen in Europe. We finally made it to the castle (Which was two and a half miles away from our hostel) with little time to spare. But, like some other tourists we watched the changing of the guards instead of getting into the castle before it closed (As my mom would say “ohh well”). With our tails in between our legs we dragged our feet back through the Old Town Square to our hostel. Feeling slightly defeated we decided to eat at a pizzeria called Einstein’s right next to our hostel. Apparently, the restaurant knew we were all tired and could not fight them scamming us over a few extra crowns on our bill (They charged us for every piece of bread we ate without telling us beforehand that if we eat the bread they bring out we will get charged). All of us called it an early night (by Prague’s standards).
