Prague Suggestions?
Hey All! There’s a chance I may get to go to Prague next week. I say chance because I have the worst buddy-pass karma in history and I don’t know if I’ll get a seat.  Perhaps if I do make it there, I’ll be stuck for months trying to get a flight home.  Anyway, does anyone have any suggestions of sites or favorite secret places they want to spill? It’s my first time visiting the Czech Republic.
Thanks!

We were just there in Oct. We have kids, so much of what we did might not appeal to you, but here are a few of our favorites: Have coffee at Cafe Montmartre, #7 Retezova (Old Town) - just what you imagine a cozy European cafe to be like. Have a late afternoon/early evening drink/dinner on the top of the Restaurant u Prince Terrace (right across from the clock in Old Town Square) - harsh service, but beautiful view! It’s pricey, so you may just want to have a drink. Definitely take a walking tour - you’ll get a great overview of the city and it’s complex history. There’s so much to see and do, you can’t go wrong. The Charles Bridge is a must, but it has become incredibly busy and touristy. Go early in the morning if possible - before 8am for a less crowded, more spiritual experience. The castle is also a good visit and there’s a beautiful park beneath the castle with a great view that’s perfect for a picnic - if the weather is decent. My best advice - take good walking shoes!
