Hi all,
A tip for future travelors.... frommers online has AMAZING "walking tours" that the cheapo travelors can take advantage of and see the sights while learning some history and culture. 😊
Today we did a walking tour of the Charles Bridge and Mala Strana (Lesser Town). Fantastic. We walked along the Vitava River to the 14th Century bridge known as Charles Bridge. It has over 21 statues on it and we learned about them all. My favorite was the St. John of Nepomuk because we could touch it for good luck! 😊
After we got done walking we had lunch in JJ Murpheys Irish Pub (go figure) and ate wings with Guiness! Yum!
We also go to see the Church of Our Lady Victorious (for all you Catholics), which has the famed wax statue of the baby Jesus (Bambino di Praga). Beautiful.
All I can say about the streets of Prague are that they are interchangeable with sidewalks. Do NOT attempt to drive if you ever come here.
Another fun item was the John Lennon Wall which is a large wall with John Lennon lyrics and song titles graffiti'd on it. Very cool.
To come from our adventures in Prague....
Prague Castle Walking Tour
River dinner and tour
Bike tour and pub crawl
and MORE!
The weather has been perfect fall weather for us. Luckily not too cold for our Florida blood and no rain. I hope I didn't just jinx us!
Love and miss you all! Wish you were here! Picture to come...
Mamie, Greg, Frank, and Jose!
