En route to Prague

So the coordinate bbq was a BLAST!! we grabbed brats at the local grocery store, hopped the metro a few stops, walked through this dark central park like place up to the top of some hill in the dark following the music to an open gated field like place where there was a DJ and bar and grills set up and people. Megan and I met some nice local berliners including Max. Marian set up the grill and we socialized as best we could. it was our fourth of july celebration. at about two am we left and headed back to our hostel where we passed out. Saturday morning we had to wake up way too early pack quick and hop to the train station to catch our train to prague. we ended up boarding the wrong car (on the right train) and made this old couple rather unhappy. we were in the right seats, the wrong car. so we then had to hop a couple cars to find our 2nd class seat. i slept for most of the journey while megan stayed awake. when we got to the Praha main station, we went to the vodaphone store where our CSer Dan was going to meet us. sure enough he was there, and lead us slightly astray en route to our hostel. we have bunk beds (its like when we shared the room in orlando a couple years ago!). then dan took us on a walking tour of all of prague. we say old downtown the cathedral and many other interesting places. we are saving the castle for tomorrow. We then (okay we stopped by our hostel like 4 times the people must think we are crazy, and they wanted to check that we only had bed for 2 people cause dan was with us... and they were confused) went to karoake at globe bar. it was hilarious there was a boy group and they did a couple backstreet boy songs well. Our friend dan did american woman for us. met some nice irish folk--well see if i meet up with them in ireland they live on the northwest side of the island three hours drive from dublin. then at about eleven we dropped megan off so she can sleep and dan took me on the nighttime walking tour of prague. i had a deep fried cheese on a sandwich and continued to walk another few miles in an attempt to burn it off. its now three am here and i'm about to go to sleep. megan and i are finishing the walking tour and meeting herfriend lucy for coffee/drinks at 3pm. tomorrow is our one full day in prague then we leave the next for vienna.
