Last day in Prague

Today has been amazing. This morning our little group went to our bakery for breakfast then brought it back to eat in "the cave" of our hostel. We had a little extra time before meeting group so we went to the John Lennon Wall again. We took pictures with Minions!!! The group met and walked up to Lobkowicz Palace for the chamber music and to look around the palace (some creepy guy with a mask was on the hill). There were some great manuscripts in there! Unfortunately pictures were not allowed. Fortunately some people in our group have trouble following directions so there should be some pictures floating around the blog. After this we walked around the older cathedral, St. George Basilica, and then we all took a break at a coffee shop with wifi. Then we walked back down the hill and some of us got a sausage! We walked around for a bit, then we headed to get some dinner at U Fleku! It was great and they walk around handing out beer! I tried a sip... EW. I also tried a sip of some sort of shot... Also EW. I got sprite and the goulash and potato soup were great, plus I tried Dr. Powell's duck, too! Then off we went toward the water where we would be on our jazz boat tour! Since we had a little time before we had to be there the group disbanded for a bit to walk around or stop off at the hostel. Then we all met up and walked to the boat. Once on I got a hot apple with cinnamon drink (Hot apple juice with spices and a couple slices of apple in it). The tour was from 8:30-11. The musicians sounded great! It was nice and relaxing. I also got apple pie. Taylor got a tequila sunrise so I tried a sip and have decided for sure I do not like alcohol of any kind. As we were walking back to Hostel Mango after the boat it started snowing again!!! It snowed real snowflakes once, little fuzz balls once, and tonight was a little bigger and actually starting to stick! to top it all off, one of the flakes on my glove looked like a flower tonight! Now it's time to pack for the train to Salzburg.
