Color, w/ exception I'd go for color mostly, with the exception being macro type photos of simple architecture or macro shots of people. Makes a nice contrast in those instances.
Color is nicer to me All your pictures tell a good story but in color it comes across best. Bob and I head to India on Sunday for three weeks with Melissa and her family. Wish I could do pictures like you do...very lovely.
Seems like the weeks of your time in Praque are speeding by.

Hanavsky pavilion Hello Bill and Nancy
I'm Jiro from Bangkok, Thailand.
Nice to know you.
I just read your post about Hanavsky pavilion in Letna Park.
I really want to go there and take some picture of Vltava river and bridges. Could you please answering me question below:
1. I stay at Pargue 3 (Olsanka Hotel (Táboritská 23/1000 130 00 Praha 3 - Žižkov.). Can you tell me how can I go to Hanavsky Pavilion ?
2. Is Hanavsky pavilion public open for tourist. I really want to go there and take some picture of river and bridges. Or I have to order some food at the Hanavsky restaurant.
Looking forward to hear from you.
Jiro
Happy Birthday! Dear Bill,
Happy birthday even though it is too late. I just read this blog today, but I still remember your birthdays. Anyway, happy birthday again and happy and healthy everyday! Very happy to see the pictures of you.

Happy birthday! Belated happy birthday greetings to you, Bill! We finally get to see a picture of you! Evidently, you are usually the one to taking pictures.
I've been enjoying touring around Spain and other countries where you have traveled through your pictures and narrations on what we are seeing.
We had a dusting of snow last night. It looks pretty, but I'll be glad to get back to the 60s next week and some sunshine!
Hope you continue to enjoy your stay in Prague and visits to other areas.
Take care.
Love,
Virginia
Ah, there's Bill, kicking back his customary vodka...I hope you woke up in the right country.
Ah, I kid. Happy birthday, Bill - we miss you and Nancy terribly. If I make you a cake like that, will you guys come back sooner? Perhaps I should start now, since it might take me awhile to recreate THAT cake.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY,BILL HI BILL FROM JEAN IN TIMBERVILLE! Wishing you another Good Year/Enjoy your blogs and glad to be able to be able to see the lovely pictures and hear about your experiences. Exciting. You both look great! Keep on enjoying. Love and Hugs from Virginia
Wonderful Travel Log I really enjoy reading your comments of your travels and what a
wonderful Christmas that must have been. Thank you so much for
bringing all these wonderful countries to us . We have wanted to go
to Prague ever since you started sending the blog.
Love It Bill and Nancy,
We love your blogs. So glad to have had you to show us around in Prague. Travelling, you remind us of us.

Out of proportion "An odd encounter but one most English-only folk probably deserve."
Not sure about that. You learn the language you need. Should I be irritated/angry that many people can't/won't "speak" or "read" multiple musical languages? Most of us have trouble making ourselves understood at all in our native tongue as it is.
Sounds like this guy was itching to get some anger out. You were tourists! Geez. Probably was a backlash against globalization and language push (so to speak).
Great description! Of course, the ethnomusicologist in me wonders many things about this (what the text meant, why they started singing exactly at that point and place, why you thought the music was reminiscent of Jewish music), but it's gratifying nonetheless that there are places and people that will just start singing! Perhaps it takes someone (say, a little girl) less inhibited by fears of "proper" behavior to lead us in this type of thing, eh? I must also say that I'm disappointed that the singing was stopped by the Mass, and there is probably something to be said there about power and politics...but I'll leave it be.
Wow..I love these pictures..I am so jealous!! I hope and pray that you have a safe and wonderful time. I think of you guys often..Love always and always..Ash
We are retired librarians. Nancy worked for the Board of Education and Bill operated a one person engineering library for a communications company. Travel has been one of our passions our entire marriage.
Originally we thought this blog would report only on our trip to Prague. However, we have decided to add entries and photos previous trips. We hope you enjoy them.
