Day 2 in Prague

Well we've had a lovely first full day on our trip! After getting up unusually early for me and Tom (8am lol) we had a nice breakfast at the hotel and then made our way to the Jewish Quarter of Prague. We were hoping to see some of the main synagogues, but they wanted a stupid amount of money for us to get in, so we just wondered round for a bit, and then went to the Old town where Tom persuaded me to go to the top of the town hall tower with him (v high!). We also got to see the Astronomical clock chime 12 noon, from the crowd gathered around it I was expecting something amazing, in fact it was rather underwhelming! After looking round Old town we went back to the hotel for about an hour- it was raining and we were quite tired after walking round all day. After a bit of rest we went back out to look around the new town, and to find somewhere to eat. In the end we took the advice of our DK guide book and went to a restaurant called 'U rejrodu' where I had traditional goulash (v yummy), and Tom took the recommendation of the waiter and had a pork and dumplings dish (apparently a lot nicer than yesterdays pork and dumplings lol). I have a funny feeling neither of us will want to see another dumpling after this trip! After having our meal we got the metro to 'Vysehrad' which is situated on a cliff, from which you can see over Prague- very pretty, especially as the sun was setting. A brilliant second day of our trip!
