Prague day three…

Some laundromat time in the morning, then art in the afternoon, and a long walk later on.

The modern art museum here is good. I spent 4 hours in just the permanent collection. The temporary exhibits looked good, but I’d seen enough.

Lots of free podcasts and walking tours of many European cities out there. I just listened and people watched until bedtime.

Last day in Prague…probs spend it at the castle and another museum. No surprise there lol.

Lovely day in Prague…again

Another great day. The weather cooperated with me and I’m glad.

After a nice AM walk, I saw a bunch of art at the National Galleries.  There’s six buildings spread across the city, and I managed four before they closed for the day.  Not too shabby. Some proper art here in Prague if you want any. I left the two best ones for Monday.

At five I found a walking tour of the castle area. It was just okay. The guide was enthusiastic but couldn’t answer questions. I discovered that I’m definitely going back to the cathedral, anyway.  So that’s good.

After the tour, some dinner. It was a stew of some kind, with the delicious saltiness of chili, but a different flavor. Very good.

Tomorrow’s another marathon. Lol. Hopefully it won’t keep me from my sightseeing, as the finish line is the town square!

C u later!

Day 1 Prague…

Super day here in the Czech Republic.

Nice several hours walking around, then a free tour of the old town. The guide was a Prague resident who had extensively traveled in Europe, so she had lots of insight into the type of things travelers want to hear. Good tour.

I met a neat lady from Belgium, and she was nice enough to have lunch with me. Very good soup at this place off the square.  

The rest of the afternoon we walked around the riverfront area and had tea. Delightful!

I’m headed to the national gallery tomorrow to see Bohemian treasures.

Have a good weekend!

Travel day to Prague…

The bus ride was good. Only about 10 of us, so we each had all the space we needed.

After an easy metro ride and check in, I took advantage of the sunny evening and walked for a few hours. I saw a bunch of closed churches,  many intriguing looking museums, and the Charles bridge. I’ve looked forward to that for a while. So neat with all the happy people, buskers, and cool bronze statues. I saw about 50 restaurants I want to try. A pretty legit Vietnamese place is quite close to my hostel. 

The rain chased me home. I look forward to Prague.  So much to see and do!

Bye for now!
