Intent:

For any of you that don't know, I love postcards.
I've decided that this is probably the best way to document my time in Prague: a blog based on photographs and postcards.
I'll post more often this way (hopefully), and there will just be a small amount of text--a postcard's worth. And this way I'll be able to send "postcards" to everyone.

Prague with the Fam: Arrival

Mom, Dad & Emily flew into Prague late on a Thursday night. I was pretty excited, so I went out to where the airport bus drops people off at the metro (about 2 blocks from my dorm), and waited for them to come through. They seemed TIRED. But I think anyone would after flying across the Atlantic & then driving around Ireland for a few days.

The next day I hung out with them after my morning classes. They took advantage of that & slept in. Then we hit some of the major highlights: Wenceslas Square, Old Town Square (including the Astronomical clock—big hit!), Charles Bridge & the Castle, in that order, so that means they got to walk all… the… way… up to the castle. I still think it’s better that way.

We had dinner at the best pizza place I’ve found—right near my dorm. & with that they had another wonderful Prague experience: SMOKEY restaurants. They had no tables in non-smoking. : (
