Just this morning, I landed back at Frankfurt international airport from five or so days spent in Prague and Krakow. Below are some photos that I took from my iPhone 7 and in the exact order I visited them in. Currently also deciding on a handy camera for better photos on this blog. Looking forward to that! So bright and early that morning, we took a two hour train to the Sedlec Ossuary of Prague, although a bit disappointed at the lack of things to do at the little town that this Ossuary was at, it was definitely worth it. I have personally never seen anything remotely similar and was rather fascinated. What felt like minutes after, it went dark very early since it is winter and this photo was taken at about 4pm only... However, the city lights did make up for it, they were absolutely stunning and I stared at this view from the road to castle for 15 whole minutes, if it weren't for the cold, it would easily have been longer. I unfortunately do not have any photos of the castle, nor the view of the main city and the Charles bridge, which we did walk across, but I felt that I didn't have a photo of good enough quality to highlight the beauty I saw through my eyes and I definitely did not want to hinder that in any way. Soon after, we settled into a little restaurant that we found along the road, which led to something that replicated a wine cellar of some sort. And it was at this restaurant that I met my new found favourite winter comfort food - a Beef Goulash in a soft, warm and fresh bread bowl. After dinner, we were a little too tired and sluggish so we walked a few blocks down and we spotted a blackboard that said "MULLED WINE", which I was craving after all the beautiful Christmas markets in Germany where they sold Gluhwein. I was admittedly slightly sad about having to wait another year+ for it but apparently that wasn't the case anymore! So when on holiday, you have to try everything a city has to offer right? So back down the road we go, heading to our accomodation for the night we came across a store that served these "Chimneys", traditionally known as Trdelnik, although we were already in a massive food coma, how can one say no to this! I know for a fact that I've never seen thee anywhere else, so we shared one. The lady knew we were sharing, so she very kindly separated the fillings into a cup and in that cup was a layer of apple strudel, strawberries and Ice Cream. The thought of it is already making my mouth water! That wraps up my short but eventful day in Prague. Next morning, we took a very early and a very long train ride to Krakow, all about it in the next post.
