Good morning everyone,
We are up and at 'em this morning because we leave for Iceland today. Booo hooo......our last stop on the journey!
We had a fantastic time last night! We had our city tour in the afternoon, and then headed to the Castle, to the Cathedral, etc. Unfortunately, it was already dark and my camera doesn't take very good pictures at night, but I tried!!!! We saw the famous "Fred and Ginger" buildings; I had to try and get that shot from the bus. It was a challenge. Most of us were out and about yesterday and loving the opportunity to walk around this City. We love Prague and highly recommend it to everyone!!!! We've had fun here.
While it has been overcast, it has not been cold so that makes for delightful walking. I have been a bit of a novelty as I still am wearing my sandals. I hate wearing socks and shoes, but will be putting them on as we head to Iceland today. Sounds like the weather is pretty good there! And fun times lie ahead as well........a Christmas concert, a swim in the Blue Lagoon, a gala farewell dinner.........you won't want
to miss that blog. I will also be doing a Blog Finale (of course!) and will attempt to capture a lot of different types of pictures for you, along with comments from everyone as to the highlights of the trip, funniest moments, etc.
So, after we left the Cathdral yesterday, we drove out to the country and had a dinner and Folklore performance by some young dancers. What a fun night. The food was great; there was wine, food, laughter, music, dancing........who could ask for anything more! Many of our tour group headed to see/hear Vivaldi instead and I can't wait to hear about that experience. There really is a lot to see and do here.
But we had fun and it was an early evening, so that was good (for all of us "sickies" who are still fighting the cold!). The rooms here are typical European.......small! But they are quaint too. We are in a very old building right near the Square, so there's lots of character around us.
And that's that. Thanks for the Comments and e-mails this morning. I will pass the messages on to Gail, Kevin (who, by the way, showed us all
A guard on duty at the Castle
Can you imagine doing this all day?the video stream of their adorable little grandchild!!!!!) and to Tina (who is having a great time too). (Kate, nice to get your comment. I was going to send you a note and see how you are doing.)
Bye for now,
Happy Pat

Prauge looks beautiful....
Pat, those are beautiful pictures of Prauge. I can't believe the tour is almost over. Your blog has been the highlights of my days for the month of November as we sit in this deep freeze with so much snow I don't know where to put it when I shovel!! Looking forward to your Iceland blog. Take care.....hope you're feeling better soon.
