We had so much fun in Munich, we wish we could have stayed more than just one night! But after a few days in the Czech Republic, we would be returning to Germany. We boarded the coach and we were off to Prague! Neither of us knew very much about this country, and so we appreciated all of the history and info that our tour guide provided us during the drive. It was a long drive, but we ended up getting to Prague much earlier than expected. Upon arrival, we had enough time to go see the Prague Castle and its surrounding grounds before dinner at our hotel. The castle with its gothic architecture was STUNNING and very beautiful at night. It is located at the top of a hill, and so the venture also gave us a great view of the city on such a clear night. Once we got enough pictures, we headed back to freshen up for dinner and the much-anticipated “Drunken Monkey Pub Crawl.” Contiki hired a local bar that they’ve never used before to organize a pub-crawl for our group. It turns out that the two guys that owned the first bar we went to and organized the pub-crawl were from Iowa and college graduates of UNLV. Upon graduation, they moved to Prague and opened up their own bar and are now living the dream. They were really cool guys, and we ever decide to pick up our bags and move to Prague, we definitely know where to turn to first for a job! Their pub was Americanized, with beer pong and flip cup tables set up for us to play. And better yet, they had the Packers vs. Giants game on the big screen, so we got to see the Packers get pounded. We taught all of the Aussies how to play beer pong and took advantage of the happy-hour-all-you-can-drink that they offered to us. After the Drunken Monkey, they took us to a few more bars where we enjoyed live music and bon-bon-shaking. It was a fabulous night and the perfect introduction into Prague.
