Prague 2

June 19, 2018

Our first full day in Prague. It's known as The Golden City, The Mother of All Cities, or City of a Hundred Spires

Just by writing about Prague, I feel like I want to be a tour guide. "

"Here ye, here ye, stay with the group, be on time, drop money in my cup."

Our real tour guide is Jorgina. Max gets blog credit for the contributions below.

Her badge photo might be outdated. Max feels her J-Dates will be in for a surprise.

Here's the deal, J-Gina is not someone we would recommend. However, she knows her temples. We started the day on a Jewish temple tour. Prague has been cool to Jews, unlike other countries. First stop was the home of the Yamakah.

And also the first Jewish bathrobe made by Calvin Kleinmangold.

Next stop is the Orthodox Temple. They still conduct services and circumcisions at the temple. Josh's Uncle signed up for one. I think it was buy one get one free.

Moil City. I'm The Mayor

I know this is intended to be a mock blog, however it gets tough when it's the Holocaust. Throughout Prague, there are plates on the street in memory of Holocaust victims.

We then went to the Pinkas Synagogue, dedicated to the Jewish victims of the Holocaust from Bohemia and Moravia. 180,000 names were on its walls in memory those lost.

"Fuck Hitler". Can everyone please give me a "Fuck Hitler". It was an amazing memorial, but it totally sucks. We should all be grateful to live in peace. We also explored the Old Jewish Cemetery. It was the only Jewish cemetery up through the 1700's, and in places had 11 layers of graves.

Never Forget

After that I needed a workout. And then we all headed out for lunch. Sometimes after a Holocaust museum tour, a workout and a big lunch, you don't feel like yourself. I'm feeling bloated...

Sorry, Stomach Man Guy. Had to.

After lunch we headed to the Prague Castle. It was lightly guarded.

Very lightly guarded...

And the owner likes high ceilings

There were girls and queens everywhere

And big, large monuments. Everything is big in the castle. Feels very hard to keep up.

What a day. I'm exhausted from the Holocaust memories and castle touring.
Fuck Hitler. Fuck Hitler, Harvey, and Yu Darvish. Thank you. I feel much better now. 2nd wind.

Anyone up for pub crawl? We broke up into two groups and headed out.  Group 1 was led by Casey the tour guide. I'd recommend him. He knew is beer and pubs. And he liked to walk.
