day 5: Prague

Nothing much happened today. I wasnt feeling to well and was recovering in bed for most of the day.... 

In the afternoon I roused myself and went outside to browse through the close by shopping centre where I found a Promod! Yay :) Im in love with this european chain store. I quickly returned back to the hotel after being followed by a very enthusiastic local who wouldnt believe that my 'boyfriend' was meeting me back at the hotel in 5 minutes. Looking back I need'nt have panicked so much as I did. But that is the beauty of hindsight.
Luckily for me I had an amazing bunch of friends within the contiki group who acted as my escorts and fake boyfriends for the rest of the trip. And so arm and arm with my friends i was escorted to our final group outing in Prague!

We went to a traditional eatery in the cobblestone streets of the old centre and listened to traditional music and watched traditional dances! it was fantastic. my meal was wonderful and i even managed to get up and get dancing (with my two left feet). Thanks to the lovely Brendan who is a fantastic dancer!
Afterwards we again headed out on the same route as our pub crawl and danced the night away. At 2.30 in the morning our cab driver tried to rip us off and we found ourselves walking barefoot with heels in our hands back towards our hotel- not without a quick pitstop at Kfc on the way.... bloody cab drivers!
