CZECH-IN' IT OUT!!!!


Hellooo!!!!
So it's taken me a while to get around to sharing some photos from my trip to beautiful Czech Republic last month!!! It was my first proper time in the country aside from some random platform hopping and being stranded in the countryside there a couple of years ago on an overnight train!!! Had the most magical trip and spent time in Prague and Kutna Hora! I took about 1000 photos so I've had to be selective here! Prague was AMAZINGGG! Incredible buildings, yummy fruit dumplings and pretty baroque churches!Love this city! I also travelled to the town of Kutna Hora to check out Sedlec Ossuary, also known as the bone church. This place was one of the most amazing sights I have ever seen, the interior is decorated with bones and includes an intricate chandelier constructed out of human skeletons...totally macabe but absolutely incredible, like nothing I've ever seen before IN MY LIFE!!! After we stepped out of the church we discovered an almighty blizzard of snow had unleashed on the town which was super pretty and sparkly and of course FREEZING!!!!
Back in Prague it was a case of storming around taking in as much as possible....the castle, Jewish Quarter, Old Town Square, Charles Bridge......plenty of stops for cake and Turkish coffee!!!Lots of Christmas shopping and hunting out the tackiest souvenirs!!!
Other highlights included collecting ridiculous marzipan characters and buying pumpkins in cans!!! Sampled lots of local honey cake and tracked down some juicy vintage stores!!!!!
Such an action packed trip!!!!! I was  excited about finding a couple of my old favourite Austrian stores....the glory of finding a Billa supermarket that stocked my FAVOURITE Punschkrapfen cake was the BEST!!! Obviously my case was jam packed bringing back my haul of cakes!!!! YUMMMMM!!!!
Ok...here are a few photos!!!
