26-10-2017 Bong & His First 1KG Pork Dinner

On our way home,
we stopped by different kind of shops...
for more shopping.
From Christmas decorations,
to erotic shop...
wow!!!
Not to forget,
we also stopped at a restaurant
to enjoy a drink on the street...
Arne ordered a mojito 
while I ordered their typical czech beer Staropramen!
Cheers for a nice sight-seeing tour today!!!
Beer in Czech Republic is super cheap!
A glass of beer costs around 25 Czech kroner
to 45 Czech kroner,
depends on location and standard of the restaurant.
After spending almost 2 hours on our way back to the hotel,
we finally reached our destination
and got our room!
The room is rather big,
and we got our own little kitchen too!
Bathroom is okay too....
but the lift is really scary!
The lift is so small that
it can't take more than 3 people I think...
We had a small rest,
then we went out for dinner hunting....
We wanted something local,
so we chose this very localish
basement restaurant.
and ordered their Czech specials,
instead of burger and fries.
We ordered braised beef with vegetable-creamy sauce, 
cranberries and bread dumplings,
and also baked pork knuckle marinated in dark beer,
mustard and horseradish. 
A total of 1kg pork meat,
and we, or I...managed to eat it up!
The restaurant name is Restaurace u českého lva.
If you google it,
the English name is At the Czech Lion!
What a special name!
The whole dinner,
food with red wines
and a jager shot
didn't cost us more than 610 Czech Kroner (About 300 NOK).
The next day,
we went to a nearby cafe shop
for a simple breakfast.
Baguettes, coffee and juice
costed only 170 Czech Kroner (60 NOK).
In Norway, 
we probably only managed to get 1 baguette! 
We bought a post card for Knut,
something that we always do when we travel...
After the breakfast,
I bought a 24 hours public transport ticket for us,
and our day 2 sight-seeing started from taking this tram....
To be continued....

22-10-2017 Bong & His First Time at Charles Bridge

Our experience walking on Charles Bridge
was...
although it was raining,
the bridge was still crowded with people!!
And of course the view from Charles Bridge
was still very nice
though the sky was grey....
and there were still many stalls
selling tourist stuffs
on the bridge...
We didn't spend much time on the bridge
since it was so crowded.
So in just less than 10 minutes,
we already another side,
which is the old town bridge tower.
Right beside the tower,
you will see the Charles Bridge Museum,
and St. Francis Of Assissi Church 
(Kostel svatého Františka z Assisi). 
We walked,
and walked,
and walked...
went through shopping areas,
small alleys...
and not to forget,
stopped for small local snack,
chimney cake (Kürtőskalács)
at this Good Food Coffee & Bakery. 
They sell this chimney cake everywhere,
and the quality seems pretty much the same in every stall!
After walking about 3-4 hours,
we already started feeling exhausted
and pain on our feet.
But with so many shops selling interesting things
all around us,
we were always tempted to go in and have a look.
One of them was this Amadea
wooden products shop....
We also passed by this St. Giles' Church
(Kostel Sv. Jiljí)...
Although it was just an unpopular church
that we passed by and went in,
we were surprised that it is so so nice inside.
We spent some time,
more for the purpose of relaxing our feet inside the church.
After that,
we continued our 'journey'
walking back to the hotel....
To be continued...

XOXO
