Prague Trip Day 2

   Hello guys! So as I promised yesterday, here is the second day of my Prague trip. We decided to leave our hostel in the morning (8 a.m.) which was the best thing we could do because the first stop of the day was the Prague castle and St. Vitus Cathedral (Katedrála Svatého Víta) which are on the list of the top sights you have to see when you're in Prague, which also means it's always super crowded. But as I said with my parents we begun our day quite early so when we came here it was totally empty and I have to tell you it was amazing. I hate walking in huge crowds of loud people so when we were there it was all so quiet so the place gained even more of its unique and mysterious atmosphere. And honestly, when I saw how massive the Cathedral is I couldn't help but stare at it with my mouth open and head turned to the sky.

   Really funny was when we were leaving this part of Prague it was the time when all the massive crowds of tourist started literally pouring in. So it was huge win for my parents and I because there is not that many people who could experience what we did. :) After that, we made our way to the Petřín Lookout Tower, which really looks like the Eiffel Tower. It was really nice and also the whole area of Petřín Hill are basically gardens of all types so that would be also a nice way of spending a day in Prague, exploring these gardens but unfortunately we didn't really have time for that.

   After we made our way back to the Charles bridge, we continued down the river Vltava and went to see Žofín, which is a nice building situated on one island. Then we saw the Dancing House and then we finally made it to the Vyšehrad. You can find there a really pretty and huge Gothic Church of Sts. Peter and Paul along with the Slavin Cemetery and Rotunda of St. Martin. 


   When we were finished with all the sights we wanted to see we headed back to the center and spent last hour or so in the shopping center Palladium where we manged to buy some food for the way back home and of course my mom and me couldn't resist the temptation of going to see some of the shops. I ended up buying a jacket from Roxy which is absolutely gorgeous and I love it so much, plus it was in 50% sale so double win! After that we made our way to the airport where we waited for brother's plane to land and then when we all greeted and the family was together again which meant we were ready to go home. :)
   
   So to sum it all up, I fell in love with Prague and I will study hard this year so that I will go to the college here. It's gonna be super difficult but I'll do my best. :) Anyway this trip was amazing and I'm happy that my brother is home again but on the other hand he is already annoying but that's what I was expecting. *hah* I also want to make the China haul vol. 2 so also get ready for that. I have some amazing stuff to show you including Batman Converse and Harry Potter necklaces. :) But about that later. Love you all!!

After a year I finally got to have Mango frappe in Starbucks.
The first time it was in London. Miss it so much.

I can't help it, but this metro station looks like a body of the Dalek.
