Clare really wanted to watch Knocked Up but my TV won't play it for some reason. We are watching Jesus Christ Superstar instead. Pretty much just as good.
This song is on now. We used to sing it at primary school. Real appropriate.
So, I haven't blogged for a long time and now I can no longer remember any of the things I wanted to blog about. Yesterday we got back from European adventures. I am going to tell you about all the food (mostly Schnitzel) we ate.
On Wednesday night before we left I came down with some kind of mystery illness and basically died on Thursday, which was unfortunate because I still felt kind of sick until about Tuesday/Munich. Consequently I only took a photo of the amazing looking donut pretzel at the sweet market in Salzburg:

All food choices in Austria/Germany pretty much consisted of meat and potatoes. Mainly Schnitzel and/or sausages of some kind. We mostly tried to eat at traditional looking places (except that one night we ate Italian...) so therefore we ate many varieties of these dishes. They were mostly pretty great.
We also tried all the Apple strudel we could handle. And one piece of cheese strudel. In Munich Clare made me order a Banana boat, which is German for banana split I guess?, and then I had to
sing to her. Luckily I'm a real great singer.
On our second night in Munich we went to
this famous beer hall and drank beers the size of our heads:
We tried to drink so much beer but it was a giant struggle. Especially since I hate beer. We also cheated and had Radlers.

| Clare totes won. |
I tried to be adventurous one morning and bought some weird looking snack that was call "Americano"
 |
| It was not as exciting at it looked. Think dry cake with fake icing. |
 |
| Clare really enjoyed her "Berliner" donut though. |
 |
| After our trip to the concentration camp we really wanted giant drinks. Your mama helped us out. |
 |
| All apple flavoured drinks in Germany are carbonated. You have been warned. |
The food choices in Prague were possibly good, it's hard to say. On our first day we got there pretty late in the afternoon and had side of the road hotdogs for a snack. We were ready to eat dinner at maybe 8.30ish and spied a restaurant out of the window of our hotel/across the river. We got a menu and decided what we were gonna eat... then tried to order and were informed that it was too late to order pretty much anything. After some difficult communication with the waitress who didn't seem to speak any English we realised we could order salad. So we did.
 |
| Clare, anticipating her salad. |
 |
| Salad? Basically cucumber. |
 |
| Clare, not even caring that she hates cucumber. |
 |
| Luckily we had a real great view. Our hotel is right on the end with the green sign. |
The next day we took a lunchtime cruise. It included a buffet. And an old man playing a piano accordion. We were basically the only young people except for the kids with their parents.
It was almost 12, so we drank.
 |
| Free shot on arrival! |
 |
| Pina Colada/Sex on the beach (boat) |
 |
| Mojito/Cryb bomb |
 |
| More meat! Also vegetables? |
Finally on Thursday I made Clare go to the airport super early and we couldn't check in for like an hour so she ate some airport Pizza. I just ate some crust.
I hope you wanted to experience every meal we ate? I don't know if you care actually.
Some of you guys had a real fun time Czeching out Prague from the deck of the boat though!
