Hello all those young and reckless fans out there! What a
very busy weeks I have had! My last post was on the 23rd of July,
and now it’s the 29th. In that small amount of time, the Figjam has
completed more than the average man could have done… in their lifetime.
Let me start off with Prague! Before I even arrived I was
pre-warned about Prague’s nightlife, and coming from there I have to agree with
everyone. Prague is definitely more of a night time city. I’m not going to bore
you with all the standard ‘going out and getting drunk’ stories. But I have to admit, things are different in
Prague. I’m not sure if it is because of what they put in the water (or the
beer) but as soon as the sun sets – people party.
On my arrival to the hostel, I was forced into a drinking
game with a whole bunch of guys from other countries around the world – it was
great, when I realised it was a kid’s 21st birthday! I planned to
make sure it is memorable! I’m a nice guy, its what I do, and this we certainly
did.
The next day however I dragged myself out of bed, as I was
joining Scott who was the Aussie guy I met on the bus for one of those free
walking tours. I’m normally not really one for these tours, don’t get me wrong,
it was interesting – but I much prefer walking the streets on my own taking
everything in myself. After the tour finished, Scott and myself tried to look
for a nice viewing point to watch a sunset, unfortunately it didn’t work out,
but we did walk through some lovely parks.
On the way back down from our lovely walk through the parks,
I headed ‘left’ off down to the Castle of Prague! By this time I was knackered
from walking all day. But it was nice to just sit and look at the castle as the
sun was going down, Remember Rule #2 Enjoy the little things. J
On my return back to the hostel, I cooked some food and sat
down on my laptop and watched a movie whilst I ate my dinner.
After a while, I got chatty to a group of guys from all over
the world: New Zealand, Canada and Australia. The funny thing is that, the guys
from Australia are from Parkdale, the place where I’m from! Crazy ey! It really
goes to show that the world is just a village!
Drinks were drunk, and shots were had up until the time
where everyone decided to go out. I wasn’t going to say no to my last night out
in Prague, so I joined.
