Cesky Krumlov

cesky krumlov is this little town in Czech Republic that has a huge beautiful castle surrounded by brown bears and is also famous for the fact that the horror movie hostel was filmed here.

We stayed in the hostel 99 which is the hostel which the movie was filmed. It was like a huge house filled with random people you got to know really well as there were no locks on bedroom doors and everything was free for all. Cesky had great food and beautiful scenery . First day we walked up to the castle and had a look at the bears that surrounded the castle. Then we walked up into the castle and looked around and then walked up through beautiful gardens and around the pond at the back. From the castle there was beautiful views of the entire town. All the buildings had red ceramic roof tiles and were tall narrow cream buildings. It was a magnificent view. Surrounding the castle and the town was a huge lake which the following day we hired white water rafts and white water rafted down the lake. Although we did this a little different and we made it a pub crawl which is the other main attraction to cesky . On the entire way down the river there are little bars that you pull into and have shots and drinks until you get to the bottom of the river which ends at the back of the hostel. The water was freezing cold but after a few drinks you couldn't really tell. We stopped at about 6 bars and it took us 6 hours to get down the river. Was a great day.a

That night we headed to the folk festival and had dinner and then off to bed for an early rise for the bus.

Prague - the place that makes me never want to drink again.

we arrived in Prague and get checked into our hostel Plus Prague which is like a mini hotel only it's ridiculously cheap. It has a sauna and huge indoor pool and a massive bar and restaurant out the back.

We drop our bags off and head to the sauna and pool and spend about an hour just chilling in there. Afterwards we get showered and head out for dinner as we arrived fairly late in the afternoon. For dinner we had traditional Czech Meals of beef goulash and these potato buns that they call dumplings. They were a weird texture that's for sure. Then off to bed for an early rise the following day.

Day 2 we get up early and have buffet breaks. Delicious! We walk to the tram station to catch the tram into town to do site seeing when we meet two guys that are staying at our hostel from Australia you wouldn't believe. Haha We get talking and decided to go on a pub crawl in the night with them as apparently Prague is known for good night life. We go site seeing in town and walk over the famous bridge and up the hill to visit the church and castle then spend the afternoon strolling through town and seeing the main town centre and huge clock. We grab something to eat then head home to get ready for the night. We meet the boys for predefined at 7 In our hostel bar then catch the tram into town under the big clock where we r bargained by all the different pub crawl companies to go on there tour. We end up getting the tour for really cheap and get 2 hours of free alcohol for free, what a mistake that was for me. After 2 hours of free shots and vodka by bar 2 I am passing out and vomiting everywhere. What a mess I am. So poor Sally and Michael take me home in a taxi and again the night finishes early.
Was fun while it lasted. Thank god I heard from a tour guide that this is a very common thing to happen in Prague so that made me feel a little better.

The next day we chilled out went and had Mexican for dinner then packed our bags as we were leaving early for cesky krumlov. Can't wait.
