FOOD.
The food was good! It was definitely worth the money, and the ingredients were nice and fresh. We had buffet breakfast everyday, and sometimes buffet dinner. Although it gets boring since we stayed at the same hotel (and therefore ate the same stuff), the food never lost its freshness. I'm pretty sure the old food gets thrown away or eaten instead of re-served, but I'm not too sure about the meat pasta in the morning, as it seems to get crunchier and more overcooked day after day.
Lunch was about the same everyday unless it was on our own, which wasn't very often. I wish we got more of a selection, seeing that we paid for the whole trip, but I guess I'm in no position to complain about that. It's just that eating bread dumplings all the time would get a bit boring, especially since I'm the type that doesn't like to eat bread with salty gravy.
The desserts were good and not that expensive either! Lots of choices - ice cream, crepes, cakes, etc. The ice creams were really good, and only about $20 if you knew where to get them (ah-hem, look for the more run-down shops in tourist sections.. they may seem a bit dirtier than others, but their ice creams are oh-so-good... or go into a mall and get a $50 scoop with bananas and whipped cream etc).
Oh, and the portions were BIG. Perfect for piggy Steph! (:
AKI.
no picture available (:
If you ever thought Aki was normal, boy were you wrong. Aside from the fact that she sleeps like a log and needs someone to kick her out of bed to shower, she can get quite hyperactive. Jumping out from the bathroom waving King Julien style is how we usually started our mornings after the DalaiLama craze (Oh, extra information, Dalai Lama stayed in our hotel). Haha, and we even made a song about the Dalai Lama, using the tune of Arashi's 'Truth' and HeySay's I-don't-know-the-title song. It has dance steps too. Woweee did we have nothing to do.
And if you didn't notice, in the picture, you could see a custom-made JULIEN♥ necklace around her neck. That shows how crazy she is.
SIGHTS.
Beautiful architecture and clear skies. The above picture is St. Vitus Cathedral. Clap your hands everybody, Steph walked 100 stairs to reach here! (: Okay, yeah, that's not a lot, but still, for someone who hasn't been taking PE for two years and didn't lose her breath, I deserve a pat on the back. Plus, it's because I walked up that you could see this picture! Haha ;)
There are a LOT more buildings in Prague that are worthy of mention, but if I did that, this blog post would be longer than it already is. Basically, it's like what everyone says: every shot is a postcard shot. Even simple buildings, streets and alleys are so beautiful. It's awkward saying that the back alleys and ditches are pretty, but it's true. I've never see more beautiful manholes that I have seen in Prague. Haha! I think I'm turning crazy..
The marketplace was pretty nice too! Lots of fruits, candies, puppets.. that's where I got my puppet King Julien! If you want to see King Julien, go onto twitter/twitpic, because I'm too lazy to find it in my folder now. Too many pictures...~1400!! But I really love the supermarket - it was inexpensive, and lots of food! I love food, you see, so Cheap + Good Quality Food = Steph's Favorite Place (:
There's actually a lot more to Prague, but writing about everything here would spoil my presentation, now wouldn't it? ;)
If you want to see more pictures and hear more about Prague, come to discovery night (:
I'm not advertising, really. I'm just too lazy to upload everything. Harhar~
Now I have to go and study!! Lots of work.. not a good holiday :(
I heard that it's that time of year.. exams in university..
I'm not yet in uni.. so I can't share your sufferings, but add oil, everybody!
Tiffy, study hard so when you come visit Hong Kong, you will play with no regrets!
Fatty, it's your first year, so hope you get used to it soon and work hard!
