Tutu is meeting up with Ella to spend a rainy afternoon in Prague. She had her hair styled specially for the occasion.

Ella is excited to see Tutu. They are shocked and amazed at the beautiful buildings around Old Town.

Tutu is quite parched, so they decide to search for a cute cafe so they can grab a bite to eat.

Tutu orders a glass of Sprite, and requests a pink straw to go along with it. She enjoys hearing people speak a different language, but she can't understand them.

Sadly, when they exit the cafe, the sprinkle of rain had turned into a steady drizzle. Ella was convinced that their afternoon would be ruined. A pout crossed her face.

Luckily, Tutu could cheer her up with several game ideas that she had up her sleeve. The first being “circus”. Ella grasped Tutu tightly as she pretended to make the treacherous journey across the imaginary tightrope.

Next, Tutu proposes that they make silly poses for pictures in the square. At first Ella’s a little shy.

Quickly she warms up and hits a series of comical poses and faces. Ella and Tutu in Prague

After that, Tutu comes up with yet another game. They have a competition on who can spot the most medieval architectural masterpieces. Immediately, Ella’s hand shoots up to spot the Old Town Hall.

In their final game they dance and jump in muddy puddles, Ella’s favorite. Ella and Tutu in Prague

They are pretty exhausted and decide to be content with each others company as they skip down the cobblestone streets.
