How many ways can you find....

the longest distance between the same two points in Prague?

Well, we found lots of long ways, to get everywhere. This morning, despite the time change and not a lot of sleep, we were wide awake at 7:00 and got ready and headed toward the Jewish sights in Prague. The buildings were amazing, the stories were amazing, the artifacts got a little old after the third building. We climbed (Sue dragged Janna who was looking longingly at the tram) a hill on the edge of the city. We stopped by Prague's "Vegetarian Cafeteria" and got ourselves a picnic lunch of spinach, potato soup, potatoes, and tofu summer medley. Delicious! By 2:00 we were back at our hostel for a quick nap. We headed out again to see Wencleus Square and basically proceeded to wander around Prague for the next 5 hours. Dinner was delicious, at a Rick Steve recommended vegetarian restaurant. It seemed like the first real meal we'd eaten in three days. Drinks, dinner, an appetizer, only 22 dollars for both of us including tip. Wow.

This city is amazing, beautiful, old, exciting, touristy (but not very American touristy), safe, and half in English. You would never guess that 20 years ago it was behind the Iron Curtain. McDonalds' even has fried shrimp here. We can't think of anyone who wouldn't have a blast spending 2 days or a week here.

Wireless is down here, so hopefully we'll add a picture tomorrow in Dubrovnik (pending internet access there and us finding a plug converter that allows our computer to charge in Europe. Battery is almost dead. Rest assured we are having a great time, we are always near 300 tourists and are still below budget.

And the photo. . . something old, something new, something borrowed, and something Jewish. (A 900 year old cemetery)
