Hey all. I'm posting from a cafe in Prague!

Me and my buddy landed yesterday morning. It's awesome so far. We rented an apartment in Old Town that's bigger and nicer than the apartment I live in in Chicago. Sweet!

We had a great first day of mongering that you all would be proud of. We managed to stay up well over 36 hours, started drinking shortly after take off and didn't stop until fatigue finally knocked us out at about 10:30 last night.

I think we were drunk at least 3 separate times throughout the day. We got acquainted with the city and hit no less than 6 different bars throughout the day.

It was a blast. We were insane from lack of sleep, massive quantities of Czech beer, and excitement about our trip.

It's just about 10am here now and we're well rested and ready to do it up right for the rest of the week.

We're going to hit Prague Castle today and then hit the bars hard after dark.

The weather is unbelievable and unexpected. It's been perfectly clear since we touched down with highs somewhere around 60. AWESOME!

I am extremely envious of you. I loved that city. I love Bratislava much more though. :)

I'm openly jealous NeZ. Out of the country mongering can be better than any mongering on earth, just remember that you are not guaranteed the rights of the US Constitution, BUT that cops are easier to pay off.'

Now post some pics of Prague's finest womens.

I am insanely jealous. I missed Prague when I did my big Euro-trip, and have regretted it ever since!

All right! Morning two from Prague! We did up some Abisnthe at the bar last night. Absinthe and Red bull, actually, Not traditional, but good! We were just chatting over coffee trying to figure out how we got home last night. Neither of us could remember!

I'm working on about 6 hours of sleep right now. I still feel drunk from last night but they were doing construction outside my window so I had no choice but to get up.

Prague Castle was cool. We spent about 5 hours there yesterday touring around. The 287 steps to the top of the Cathedral tower were a bitch but fun nonetheless.

Not really sure what we're going to do today. We've got to find another place to stay for later in the week. We've got to be out of our apartment on Wednesday and we're not leaving until Sunday.

My liver is going to be all but shutdown by Sunday. Luckily, I took Monday off work so I'll have a day and a half to recover before I have to face the real world.

I'll keep you all updated on my progress. This cafe is only a block away from where we're staying so I expect we'll start out ours days here for the rest of the trip.
