Prague was impressive. It is another European city with lots of old buildings, etc. Reminded me a bit of Barcelona. A welcome small town feel relative to the largeness of Budapest. Prague had a smaller core and we spent a good bit of time just wandering around into various artisan shops. Also took a Segway tour of the hills of the city which was our first time on a Segway, very fun! It took about 5 minutes of training and we had a great time.
Our hotel was in the area called XXX and was centrally
located just near the Charles bridge. I discovered XX served at the local
foodie restaurant/bar called Lokal. There were two locations. Essentially this
was the freshest beer one can get and I got to try Pilsner Urquell served this
way. It was very fresh and had a soft, smooth taste. Generally Pilsner Urquell in the US is served
out of a bottle and is in the normal bitter/bad beer category, nothing special
or unspecial, just a bottle of average yuck with increasing levels of awfulness
as it attains room temperature. Served this way it was fantastic and highly
recommended.
apparently there is a budweiser in the czech republic that is not the budweiser in the US. yes, i tried it. It is not the same.
