Sadly Nick wasn't feeling well at all. What is with us getting sick on Christmas Day on this side of the world? So Nick decided he was going to stay in bed and sleep but didn't want me bored so said I should go out with Roz and Josh. I felt bad leaving him on Christmas Day but figured he needed some peace and quiet to get some rest. 
Roz, Josh and I met up in the old town and watched the astronomical clock chime, a very cool clock that also shows the moon phases and other stuff, plus a little skeleton pulls the bell when it chimes ever hour. Very cute.
We had lunch at Pivovrsky Dum restaurant which was on the other side of Prague but well worth it. I had a yummy venison stew with potato croquettes and cider. It was by far the best meal I had in Prague. So delicious!
In the afternoon we visited the Jewish cemetery and synagogues (interesting but not much to them) and walked over the St George Bridge (again!). Roz showed me the Pis statue, of two naked men peeing into a fountain with their hips moving and supposedly spelling out things. Weird.
I then took them to the markets so they could try Tredlink (oh so yum!) and see the Christmas lights. I spent the afternoon back at the apartment with Nick and then we all managed to get out for dinner at the official Pivorsky Dum brewery. The boys loved the beer and the food was delicious.
Wasn't a big night since Nick wasn't well but Roz & Josh gave us Backpackers, a very cool card game, for a present and we all spent the night playing that in the apartment. Quite a lot of fun, and that game causes some firey arguments!
On Boxing Day we did nothing! hehe it was fabulous! In fact I don't think we even left the apartment. Nick slept most of the day trying to battle his cold so I slept in, drank lots of perculated coffee (awesome coffee at the apartment), read and watched movies all day. The best way to spend Boxing day. But dammit I can't beat nick at Backpackers, he's just too good. I haven't won a single game against him yet!
