prague, dali, and the british.

everyone should visit prague and stay in a 10 person room at prague square hostel. you will have the most radical weekend. we did.

clarissa and i got to the hostel at around 730 after waiting around for late planes and what not. we got to the airport and got some kuronas or crowns or whatever you want to call czech money, but it is a very deceiving currency. 20 krowns to a euro, 28 to a dollar. anyway, the hostel was only about 50 euro for 2 nights; with airfare and food we probably spent only about $400. it was most definitely worth it. within about 10 minutes of checking in, we were invited out on a pub crawl. we went first to a little one sort of underneath the hostel where we met a big group of english boys who happened to be staying at our hostel. anyway, we joined their table pretty quickly and ended up spending most of the weekend with them. we went to two more bars after that one then ended up at a club called roxy. i really dont like clubs that much so i peaced out kind of early. the next day clarissa and i got up early to go see the prague castle which wasnt that cool but had a nice church and view of prague. then we went to an amazing Dali exhibition in a gallery in the Old Town Square. i've really never seen anything like it; it was pretty much all woodcuts, prints, lithographs, sketches, and drawing. i've only seen his painting before, but these were really different. there was even a whole two rooms filled with drawings depicting cantos of inferno, purgatorio, and paradiso. i think we were very lucky to see it, i dont think ill ever be able to see those things again. after that, we went back to the hostel and laid down for a few minutes, then got up and went to the common room and had some beers with the english boys until 9 or so, then we headed out to the underground bar again and then to a club called duplex. this club was also relatively lame, so some of use went back around 3 or so. either way, both nights were so much fun and i really cant wait to go back sometime.
