Yucky water and beautiful castles!!!

So our first day trip was to a place about 2 hours outside of Prague to a place called Karlovy Vary. It is a place where they have "healing water". It was disgusting!!!! There are like 12 or so springs and so we tried them all. It was sick. After that we went to a town called Locut (probably spelled wrong). It was a super cute little town with a castle. We loved it!! Here are a few (I guess a lot) of pictures from there:)
Here we were before our first taste of the water. This one was not that hot, but a few of them were like 75 degrees C. They were pretty gross!!!!
This was my reaction to them. YUCK!!!
I love Alec's face in this one. Do you see the coke in his hand, that was what he had to drink to get the taste out. I guess Coke serves more of a purpose then just eating away at your stomach:):)
This is what I choose to eat to get the taste out. These were yummy wafers they had.
Little Mikey's shoes in the Czech Republic. Alec wore my brothers shoes the whole time, so we thought we would get a picture of it:) Even though Mike lives in Thailand, he was also in the Czech Republic:)?
This was taken outside of the hotel that was on the movie Casino Real, with James Bond.

This was the castle we went to. It was totally awesome there!!! Alec and I were having a blast running around to get pictures of it.
The ominous bathroom! So you have to pay to get into the bathroom right, well how are you supposed to get out if it locks you in?:) Nancy had a bit of a problem. It took her money and let her in, but would not let her out. We were all in the rinks waiting for our turn when we saw she was having problems getting out. We were laughing so hard I thought I would wet my pants!:) She thought we were off looking at the castle and thought she was stuck in there:). It was so funny!
Here is our night shot of the castle. Alec was determined to stay till the lights turned on around the castle so we could see it. It was well worth the wait. It was awesome!!!
