Prague Day 1

I just got back from a trip of a lifetime.  My husband is in the military (army) and currently deployed.  His unit was not given the standard 2 weeks of R&R, but instead they each got a four day pass to visit a select few places nearby.  I, along with another wife, got to fly out and meet our husbands for four days in Prague, Czech Republic.  I wanted to chronicle my trip while I was there so I wouldn't forget anything, but the internet connection was sketchy. So I'm going to recount the trip now, day by day.

Day 1
March 6-7


We flew from Charlotte airport to Philadelphia (delayed an hour because of the snow).  I got to taste my first Philly Cheese Steak sandwich in the airport in Philadelphia.




 Seems fitting, right? It was delicious!

We made it to our hotel in Prague (Praha as it's called by the locals).  It was a four star hotel and the pictures online looked amazing... the hotel itself?  Well... it was nice :)








And then a 2 hours wait for the fellas' flight to arrive.  That was the happiest, most tearful reunion!!  Nine months apart.  He showed up with a bottle of the same wine we had on our wedding night and two roses.
