Prosim! A Tairyfale: Part II

The journey continued the next morning after a multitude of cold showers as the group ventured to the true land of tairyfaleness- Cesky Krumlov. With its beautiful castle tower and all around quaintness despite the hordes of German and Japanese tourists, it is indeed the land where dreams come true. Also the land where usage of the word “prosim” reached previously unimaginable levels. There were just so many examples of prosim-ness that there is a photo album dedicated to PROSIM! After a tour of the castle (with a splendid tour guide who did not make eye contact and let out big SIGHS!), random wanderings, dances in the namesti (the German tourists loved Claire dancing it up in the square) much food, cocktails, and rousing games of Uno the group decided to embark on what was to be the mission of the night. Get the party started for young Yuan (aka Yuanski) who was turning 22. Yuanski rang in her birthday in a truly unforgettable manner: on the bridge in Cesky Krumlov looking at the tower and the Jesus statue, with birthday dances and many words ending in -ski. Why is it so much funski? I don’t knowski! It just iski. Or isski? The search for fun endured for a while as the group tried to find a gathering place that was affordable and ended up at a different hostel bar playing sociables til 4am when they were subsequently cut off and then kicked out. The fun wasn't over yet, as they then managed to enrage the other occupants of their hostel room with late night pizza eating and pathetic attempts at whispers. And then Erik fell asleep in bed with his glasses on.

Alas, even good things must come to an end. The following day the kids had to leave, but not without doing more eating, drinking, and castle-seeing. And there were bears. Why? They lived in the bear moat of course!

Now all that remains of this real-life tairyfale is the memories, copious amounts of pictures and video, and of course… all the shit that was stolen (well, don't they factor that into the price?)

The booty: (yes, I just wanted to say booty)
-Approximately 6 candleholders (It’s bohemian crystal!)
-Ashtray
-A lighter
-Beer mug
-Napkins + napkin holder
-Coasters (aka beer mats) and the holder too I think…
-Wine glass
-Mini wine pitcher
And that my friends, is alternative souvenir shopping.

Here are the photos.
