The tour

Rick Steve's has all these recommendations and methods of picking a tour guide, but we still struggled. We ended up settling for a city and castle tour with a random tour group. After we paid, we realized that the lady we paid, who spoke perfect english, was not our guide. Instead it was a tiny, local girl that had not spoken one word of English - it was a little suspicious.

Luckily, she was very sweet and we loved her! She was a college student and was able to give us a great tour with lots of history about Prague. However, there was so much walking. This was was mostly because of our poor planning and over-ambition to see everything. After gave us a great explanation of how the clock works (even though I don't remember anymore) and the old town square, we made our way over the Charles Bridge and back up to the castle.  To be honest, the tour was a blur and by the end we were all tired and hungry. Here are some pictures!

By rubbing the dog on this plaque, it means I will return to Prague one day!

We made the long trek back up the castle and were exhausted.

After the tour, my family decided to throw in the towel and just get some rest, but Paul and I continued to wander around the city and found a dinner spot that we fell in love with. The people were friendly and the meat was delicious.
