Welcome!

Welcome to my Blog! I will be updating this blog everyday I am in Prague, and other places in Europe, with a picture and an interesting story that happened to me. This is my way of documenting my trip for all to experience this wonderful oppourtunity of studying abroad in Prague.

The Lion Sleeps Tonight




Two things I thought I would never see in Prague: Giraffes and a Tex-Mex restaurant. Today we went to the Prague Zoo and after that a very tasty Tex-Mex restaurant for dinner.

The Prague Zoo or "Zoo Praha" as it is known here in Prague, is a 40 minute tram and bus ride from our apartments but, it was well worth it. The zoo is unlike any in the U.S because of the closeness to the animals I have yet to experience in the states. Some of the animals you could literally reach over and touch. I almost pet a Meerkat, pretty cool? The Zoo even has a ski lift that you can take to the top of the park and see the entire skyline of Prague. I got alot of great photographs and had a great time.

I know what you are thinking, a Tex-Mex place in Prague? Yes sir, this place was AMAZING! The atmosphere made me feel like I was back home eating at La Casona. The food was reasonably priced and it tasted alot better than I expected. Of course they charged for chips and salsa because they charge for everything here, even water. The food was great and it was a very pleasant end to a wonderful day here in Prague.
