Maren’s Recount

Some of my favorite memories was walking down the street and seeing all the dancers and artist trying to make money. I love that everyday we would eat ice cream, eat a little lunch and dinner and maybe ice cream again.

We would walk everywhere we went and probably got the most steps from doing tours. They were very interesting and it was crazy how Czech Republic was involved in WW2.

We walked 20,000 steps per day.

Grayson’s Recount

I loved Praque for many reasons:

  1. There is always an amazing view.
  2. There is Ice cream everywhere
  3. The food is delicious

I am going to miss Prague but I am ready for another adventure. I am relieved to know that most people speak at least a little bit of English.

I went to the Prague Castle. I also went to the top of the Petrin tower. I went to the Nazi Concentration camp / Ghetto, it was called Terezin. It was very sad but very interesting. The locals are very nice and I figured out that Czech was involved in many wars, including WW2. The architecture was really cool and the look from above the city is so cool. I like that the Czech bills come in high numbers.
