Wednesday, June 6th (Prague)

This morning we discovered the grocery store right next to our hotel. Savior – cheap food around Prague! We were able to get fruit, yogurt, bread, lots of water, crackers and cereal bars for all under $4! From there, we headed to the central square in the Old Town to take the walking tour of Prague Castle.

We were finally at the point we had to do laundry. We were going to do it at the hotel, assuming that Prague would be the cheapest but when we discovered that just one shirt was $5, we decided to venture out and do it at a local laundry mat. The laundry mat was PACKED with Miami University students (Go KB and Erin) who were studying abroad across Europe for the summer. Funny that they were taking business classes in their hotels while they toured cities and local companies. It was raining out so we didn’t mind hanging out, but then the second of three dryers stopped working and we started to get frustrated. Carla headed back to the hotel to nap while I tried to negotiate a discount with the washerwoman (unsuccessfully). We had a nice dinner at Grand Café Orient where I tricked the waiter with my smooth Czech up until I had to ask for the bill.
