Before going to the zoo, Sammi, Lisa, and I decided that we would have Easter Brunch a day early. We got dressed up in sundresses and went to a restaurant called Radost FX that I had heard has good brunch. Radost is actually a club at night (Rihanna shot a music video there!), but it is a vegetarian restaurant during the day and has brunch on the weekend. The brunch definitely didn't disappoint. Sammi and I each got a huge plate of Belgian waffles covered in fresh fruit and Lisa got some really tasty eggs.
After brunch, we all met up with at the zoo. I had pretty low expectations for the zoo, but it turned out to be really great and very cheap. They had all kinds of animals, but the best part was the giraffes. The way that the giraffe enclosure was set up, the giraffes could come right up to where the people were standing. We held out leafy twigs and with a little patience and a couple of minor shocks from the electric fence we were able to get the giraffes to eat the twigs out of our hands. You could never get away with that at an American zoo between the liability of an electric fence and letting people get so close to the animals, but it was made possible today thanks to the lack of regulation in a central European zoo.
After the zoo, we were all really worn out from a day in the sun. Sammi's sister Amanda arrived in Prague today though, so Sammi, Lisa, Amanda and I all went out for dinner at Cafe Louvre, a notable Prague cafe. It was a nice end to one of my best days in Prague so far.
