My First School Camp To Prague In Czech Republic
These are the low quality photos I took with my first digital camera during my school camp trip to Prague where we caused disasters at the hotel, so embarrassing looking back.
My high school (Vellesan College) in IJmuiden, Velsen organized a work-week to Prague to learn more about the city, culture and of course do lots of cheap drinking in the city.
Beer comes by the litre for $1, how else can you go wrong. Sometimes I wondered why the teachers would pick this destination.

We got a tour of the inner city where we had a delicious dinner on the main plaza, I couldn't believe my eyes, Prague has some beautiful girls walking around.
Afterwards my friends and I got ourselves in a tricky situation where we were almost ropped by locals due to making a wrong turn. Thank god we escaped through a restaurant and got back on the main street through a backdoor.
Back at the hotel the party could commence, I remember at one point one of my friends was taking a piss out of the windows and was spotted by security and got a bit of trouble. Also, chaos broke loose at our hotel suite where we turned the window in such a position that once we positioned the shower head on top of it, water would flood the room of German tourists on the floor below us.
The city proper is home to about 1.3 million people, while its metropolitan area is estimated to have a population of over 2.3 million. Prague has been a political, cultural and economic center of Europe and particularly central Europe for the over 1,100 years of its existence.
For centuries, during the Gothic and Renaissance eras, Prague was the permanent seat of two Holy Roman Emperors and thus was also the capital of the Holy Roman Empire.
The city played roles in the Protestant Reformation, the Thirty Years' War, and in 20th-century history, both during the two World Wars and during the post-war Communist era.
