Prague - We're Millionaires

I think if we pooled our money, the four of us could buy Prague. I'm not talking like a house, I mean the whole thing. A deal might be in the works, and if it goes through, each of you get an apartment complex, theatre, gas station, and chinese food restaurant. We may even throw in a bridge or two.

Alright, with that comedic routine out of the way, we just wanted to give a little taste of how cheap Prague is. We decided to go out for dinner last night. Stopped at a chinese food restaurant we'd seen, and decided to order. Adam, Matt and Braden ordered the same thing which included

Hot and Sour Soup
A huge helping of Szechuan Fried Chicken and Rice
A Pint of the Original Budvar (Budweiser)
Tax
Tip (We weren't sure if we had to but we did anyway - we're big wheels here)

All for the low low price of 120 Krowns. Roughly converted, thats about 6 dollars Canadian. Then we went out to buy a couple of beers from a convenience store. After picking up a 500 ml bottle of Pilsner Urquell and noting the price, Matt said, and I quote, "21 Krowns - man this stuff is expensive" For a little fun, let's translate this into Canadian "1 dollar for a premium beer - man this stuff is expensive" We each decided to break the bank on a PilsUrquell, and grabbed two other 25 cent Canadian half litres. That wasnt a mistake - two other beers cost 25 cents each.

In short, Prague is awesome.

Cheers,

The Boys
