Prague, Czech Republic

Nah, as promised, pictures from Prague (pronounced 'Pra-gie', like how you'd pronounce dengue). If you believed me then you were pwned. Today you learn a new word- that is pwned. By the way before I get carried away, Prague is pronounced Praq. 

I must say Prague is one of, if not the prettiest country I've ever visited. Words and pictures do this quaint little medieval town no justice so you can just admire my face in the pictures below thank you. The food wasn't my cup of tea though. I'd probably be a vegetarian if I stayed there lolol. 

#1 Potato pancakes with cheese - my favourite so far

#2 Cheese something something

#3 Beef goulash 

#4 Pork knuckle

#5 Dessert - Apple crumble 

Dessert also not nice. This was the first time I did not gobble up my dessert so you can imagine how not-very-nice the food was.

Holidayed in the Algarve region of Portugal to bask in its warmth and to indulge in its seafood. The UK weather is getting me depressed and I really needed the sun and its vitamin D.
