Christmas Experience

Last Christmas the gift I gave Dave was tickets to a concert in Prague...that was happening eleven months later.

So he's had to wait until this week-end to experience his gift!

We arrived by train this afternoon, and headed immediately to the first place I wanted to take him, to start off his Christmas experience!

I was here earlier this fall with my friend, Martina, and loved it so much that I wanted to bring Dave to experience the atmosphere, food and let's be honest...mostly the desserts. I let him pick two!

When you choose the lemon (it's like nothing I've ever experienced), because it's their signature dessert item, you get a sticker and a gold pen to write on it with, and then you get to place it on their windows to commemorate the moment!

There's now a sticker that says, "Dave loves Connie!" Awwww!!! 💗💗💗

The "If Cafe" is a must if you're ever in Prague!

When I bought the concert tickets a year ago, I also booked a hotel for us using points that we'd acquired last year from Expedia (which is where I book everything for our travels). Little did I know what that would result in!

When we arrived to check in, the woman at the desk told us we'd been upgraded to their suite. I have no idea why (except that God was expressing kindness to us!) But it turned out to be a beautiful room, one of just three in the hotel with a balcony that overlooks one of the squares of Prague. So fun to look down on the Christmas market there!

We went down to grab a bite to eat there, deciding on the charcoal fire grill hut with some good bratwurst and chicken skewers!

Christmas in Prague is so enchanting! And I'm glad we got a little glimpse before heading to the concert.

(The concert is a blog post all of its own, due to its specialness!)
