The one on HALLOOOWWEENNNN

Happy Halloweeennnnyyy! Halloween is funny in a country where it seems like people are dressed in costumes everyday- and who don't understand Halloween- I dont really blame them. But honestly I have wished sooo many times that I had my camera to capture some of the fashion faux pas that happen in Prague- the outrageous scrunchies on hot pink dredlocks, the mis matched stripes and checkers, the ridiculously bright colored sandals with socks and the list goes on and onnnn..... so dressing up (well finding a costume) wasn't that hard! We hit up a second hand store in the top of a train station- they had the MOST RIDICULOUSS STUFFF there... we found bright colored snow suits, absurd looking blouses and suits, ties in a variety of colors, and size 185 clown pants (not kidding you could have put about 4 people in them)
   I left with stuff to make a pirate costume for $6, including a bandana with skulls on it, a red and white striped dress, and a silk blouse. My friends also left with a high school sweater, a checkered skirt, and a black suit for MIB.
   We decided to have a Halloween Costume Party at our flat, and had a variety of snacks and beverages including Witches Brew ( orange punch) Frankenstein's Brains (spinach dip in a bread bowl) and maggots and worms (sweet and sassy dip- yummm) We had people over form our TEFL class, then went to a costume party at a bar called "The Bunkr" It's a good thing that we went together to the party, because we got a few looks on the tram on our way to the costume party haha. Czech's know about Halloween, and even though most of them dress like it is Halloween everyday- the looks and snickers we received were priceless!
   Once at the costume party they had a live band, and drink specials and I even ran into a guy I did Berlitz training with! Small city- well actually it is a large city- and I don't know anybody except my students, people I work with, and my fellow students from the TEFL class, but it seems as though I am always running into people I know...crazy!
   We danced there until ....maybe 3 AM? and then ventured home in cabs- getting to the bars is easy on the trams, but after midnight the schedule changes and you have to catch "night trams" which can be very difficult, if you dont know where you are and where the nearest tram stop is, and not just only the tram stop, but a tram stop going in the direction you need it to go- which can be hard when you dont knwo where you are... so long story short we usually soend $5 total for a cab ride home.
   The Sunday after Halloween, we sat around , ate left overs and drank the rest of the brew and played Euchre alll dayyyy.... perfect Sunday , and a great end to a successful Halloween in Praha :)
