Prague








A couple of weekends ago Chris took me to Prague for a surprise weekend. We flew via Swizterland on a Thursday afternoon and got into Prague around 7pm. After collecting our bags we decided to brave public transport and catch the bus and tram to our hotel. What we didn't realise was that hardly anybody outside the airport speaks English and all the stops were announced in Czech!! Luckily we managed to get on the right bus, then change to the right tram and even get off on the right stop.

Prague is an extremely beautiful city with lots of sights to see. We saw most of them including: Charles Bridge, Stone Bridge, Prague Castle, Old Town Square, Astronimical Clock, Tyn Church etc... Everything in Prague is old and well preserved, even most of the streets are still coble stones. It was very pretty during the day and absolutely gorgeous at night.

Prague Castle is huge and includes St Vitus Cathedral, the Old Royal Palace, the Basilica of St George, Golden Lane and Prague's National Gallery. It was an amazing place and we spent around 5 hours wandering around it.

We had an absolutely awesome weekend, the sights were great, the food was okay and the beer was really cheap and good. It was lovely to get away from London and experience a completely different culture and city.

Hope to hear from you guys soon, Love Aims and Chris xoxoxoxo

Hampton Court Palace (London)



Hey all, sorry about the lack of blogging lately, we have been busy. We have been up to heaps since our last entry. These pictures are of Hampton Court Palace, which is about half an hour out of central London. This is where King Henry VIII lived with his 6 wives and there are also rooms where King Richard lived. It is a huge palace with 2 wings and an enormous tudor kitchen. There are about 10 different gardens and it even has it's own maze. Very cool place to visit.
