Prague Czech Republic

Prague, or Praha as it is known in Eastern Europe, was a last minute addition to my itinerary. I had heard from several people along the way that it was a place that I should really try and visit. Since it wasn’t far out of my way between Berlin and Munich I decided to stop there for a few days. I’m glad that I did because Prague is a really interesting city and the Czech Republic is very different than the places I had visited so far.

Munich Germany

Munich was an amazing city that can pretty much be summed up in a single word “Bier” (or “beer” as we say back home). The Germans in Munich take their beer very seriously (and in large quantities). I always thought that those huge beer steins that you see were simply for decoration. Ha, nothing could be further from the truth; they drink their beer in one-liter mugs here. A small beer is a half-liter. And the beer is absolutely terrific. I did my best to sample as many different kinds as I could while I was in Munich and I don’t think that I even scratched the surface.
