best day so far.

jenna and i in front of the lennnon wall!

yesterday was by far the best day i've had in prague this far. we finally got to sleep in past 8 which was already making the day better. once we got up at around noon, jenna and i decided to grab some brunch at one of our favorite restaurants called bohemia bagel. we got a make your own omelette and hash browns, which obviously was delicious considering not many places serve good eggs here. after a yummy meal, we met up with one of jenna's sorority sisters who was visiting this weekend from rome. she brought some other girls with her from washington so we met up with them and toured them around praha. it was funny though, since neither jenna nor myself have actually been to all the "touristy spots" yet: charles bridge, lennon wall, prague castle. so we warned them that we might get lost! eventually, we found our way and made it to the charles bridge. the weather was cold but clear and the view from the bridge was stunning!

me on the charles bridge.

 walking across the bridge was so much fun.. there were people playing music, beautiful statues, and a crowd of people taking pictures, smiling, and enjoying the views of prague. as we walked along the bridge and soaked in the breathtaking city that we live in, i really realized how lucky i am to be studying here. there is so much history and beauty that we dont even realize even though we walk around every day. after we crossed the bridge, we made it to the lennon wall, a whole wall with graffiti of sayings of the beatles and designs of peace and love. it is so colorful and pretty and we took plenty of pictures. finally, after a lot of walking and even more pictures, we headed back home but stopped at a cafe for some cokolada, hot chocolate! the hot chocolate here is so sweet and thick, we were just craving that after our cold and productive day. overall, i had such an amazing day yesterday.. the weather, the sites, the people, it was all so great and i know we will have many more days like that in the next four months!
