Welcome...to the Dome

I have never thought I would 1) go to a rave 2) watch a youtube video about how to dance at a rave 3) be followed by a Viennese man in a black hoodie down an alley 4) have 13 shots of tequila/absinth/rum/vodka shots, 2 cups of beer, and a glass of champagne in one night
...but then again, life is always full of surprises.

Unfortunately, I left my camera back at the chateau and was unable to take photos. Ironically, the one time I forget my camera, I go to the most enchanting city.

On a peppier note, I found the youtube videos that would probably make your life a little bit sweeter...enjoy!
The rave that we went to: PraterDome
And the rave tutorial that we watched/memorized before going to the discotech: Pick Those Apples

Praha, Czech Republic (Travel scale: 7)
The castles were gorgeous. It isn't as insanely cheap as people claim it is. The cobblestone walkways are the most difficult thing to walk on in 4 inch heels. The pub crawl, my first death crawl, ended up with Kirstie having to carry me through alleys in Prague. The marketplace has the most phenomenal food--fresh and fried.

Vienna, Austria (Travel scale: 10)
The cathedral. The Christmas market. Christmas lights. Little children prancing around in dresses and suits. Dog parks. Phenomenal shopping. Even better restaurants. Diversity. Cheap food stands with amazing food. Clean streets. Unbelievably great clubs. Romantic. Well dressed men.

Clearly, blog entries would be better with photos but I'll capture every moment for this weekend's trip--Nice, Lyon, and Edinburgh!
