Prague day one

This morning I woke up and thought grace had left me without anything because her class started at nine and it was definately past nine! But I went and looked in her room and she was still sleeping too haha. We ended up just hanging out in her apartment all morning. I wrote my blog while she slept haha. At around 11 we started moving for the day. We got dressed and headed out to catch a tram and a metro so we could meet her class. We ended up going to the modern art museum. It took forever to get there and the heat in this town is unbearable. No ac anywhere. No fans either. And it has to be over 100. Unbearable. It was giving me a headache and we all just walk around in silence. It's too hot to talk. We walked into the art museum and they had this giant egg that you could push and It would wobble and a bell would chime. I was so excited that the whole museum was going to be like that. It was not. It was pretty boring art but some of it was cool to look at. I saw some picasso and Monet but after 2 hours I was starving and ready to leave. We left and decided to goto Charles bridge and see the sights but first we stopped and got a bagel. Tuna is wierd over here. I can't wait for some American tuna haha. After a hot a sweaty lunch we got on another tram and headed for the bridge. We stopped in a few shops just to use their air conditioning. Haha. After a while of walking we made it to the bridge. Very cool but oh my god the heat. Grace and Sarah wanted to shop for pictures so I found myself perched under the statues for shade. It was cool to see but honestly I'm done looking at buildings. I feel like after you have seen a few thousand you've seen them all. After the bridge we hoofed it to some famous architect's building grace wanted to go have a coctail on top of. No shade. Coctail hour was cut little short. After the building we headed back to her apartment to take a nap and get ready for the night. Nap time lasted a little too long and getting ready took forever so we were a lot late getting out. We went and had dinner in this incredibly loud and hot restaurant which was pretty good! Fetuccini with Alfredo and chicken. Mmm. Then everybody from her class showed up outside so we headed out for the night. The night was a bust. We took a long tram ride to this bar where a pub crawl was going on at. It was so hot and steamy in there that I lifted a foot to step in the door and as soon as I opened it turned around and said I need another minute in the cool air before I brave that. Keep in mind cool air is 75 degrees still. Whew so we ended up sitting on the corner watching all of these tools and their nice cars and bleach blonde bimbos parade around eachother. Haha. Quite entertaining. After all of that we all just wanted to goto bed so that's what we did. :)
