Prague Stag Party Capital (so Washington post says)

"Prague is fast becoming the stag party capital of Europe, British mag The Sunday Times Travel reports. Yet the city has survived 'Jesuits, Nazis, Communist secret policemen and Soviet tank crews with its spirit intact.' The prospect of '40,000 beery blokes in comedy wigs and matching T-shirts' staggering into town every year is not going to break it. Let's hope . . . Can you say 'bioluminescent dinoflagellates?' You're soaking in them, Islands says, but that's a bright idea, because swimming with these light-emitting plankton is like being 'enveloped by millions of tiny lights.' Find 'em off Vieques, an island near the coast of Puerto Rico. "
