Prague is one of the most beautiful cities ever! Most of the movie Amadeus was filmed there so that may give you some idea as to what it looks like.
Eat the food, drink the beer/coffee, wander around and take pics for us to see.

Absinthe tastes AWFUL!!!
Make sure you stop in at a local market and try some of the potato chips and snacks. Really cool stuff there.
Ham flavored potato chips..Reminds me of some of the clever English snacks.
Have a great time and do it up!!

you can buy it over here still but its just not as strong as it used to be - I have a horrible story about me, 6/7 absinthe's and one of my mums dresses - I think we'll leave that for another time though  :-X  ;) :)

I have a bad story about absinthe from a year ago. Was I seeing a green fairy? Shit. I thought I was one.
Make sure you eat before drinking...there is a reason I don't drink anymore.

From what I gather a lot of Prague doesn't have phone poles or power lines running through it so it looks almost the same as hundreds of years ago.
Please take pictures. I will be travelling vicariously.
Anything Mozart is of interest to me.

I'm sure you'll see some cool Euro cars while you're there. Let them come to you! I'm sure they will.

I think it's available in the US now... I've been wanting to try some but I haven't tried to track any down.
