We arrived in Prague from Berlin and exchanged some money at the train station. We then got on the metro to arrive at our hotel. After getting settled we went to Pivovarsky Dum, a local micro brewery for food and beer. We got a sample that included sour cherry, banana, and nettle flavored beer. We ended up spending about $20 for dinner and beer which was nice and cheap. After that we walked back to the hotel to relax for the night.

We got up and had free breakfast at the hotel and then went to the meeting point for a free walking tour. The tour covered lots of Prague history and was a good intro to the city. After the tour, we relaxed in a park for a bit enjoying the sun and then went to the Communism Museum.
After the museum, we walked around Wenceslas square and got some honeywine. It had a very interesting taste but was sweet and enjoyable. While walking up to the top, we noticed lots of people on bikes and after asking a local, I found out that it was a bike-day thing to encourage people to bike around more. Lots of people attended and it was cool to take photos.
We then decided to grab food and beer and after walking for a bit we found a place, Kotleta that had nice outside seating. One thing we noticed about the beers is they are cheap but flavor is lacking. After our food we came back to the hotel for bed.

We got up and enjoyed our free breakfast at the hotel. Then we headed off to the Prague castle. Our ticket allowed us into various buildings which were all interesting. After seeing the castle we walked down and looked for some food. We ended up at a nice restaurant where I enjoyed spaghetti and a lemon beer. After we walked to John Lennon Wall and across the Charles bridge. We then headed for the Prague Beer Museum that claimed to have a wide variety of beers. We ordered a couple each and I got some chips to enjoy as well. After that we headed back to the hotel to shower and get the smoke smell off.

I woke up and enjoyed the free breakfast while Scott relaxed a bit more. Then we headed off to Vysehrad castle which ended up being more of a large garden with a few buildings. After seeing enough while battling the rain we decided to eat at a place that seemed a pretty cheap. After food we came back to the hotel to research our train for the next day and relax. For dinner we went out to U Medvidku, a brewery under a hotel. We expected them to have the beer they brew there on tap, but instead it came in bottles, while Budvar (Budweiser) was on tap. After our meal we headed back to get prepared for leaving the next day.
