Prague

We arrived in Prague on Saturday afternoon on a misty, cold afternoon. Since we only had the one afternoon, we dropped our stuff off and then headed back out into the rain again. We had some problem with cameras--news bulletin: cameras do not like rain!--so Karenś camera was really blurry and mine was rather blurrier than usual as well. Anyway, we saw the astronomical clock in the main square, which shows the seasons of the year as well as the time. And every hour, the doors open and the twelve apostles march past the openings.
After meandering through the main square a bit, we walked across Charles Bridge and had dinner at a fairly posh restaurant...I think we were fairly underdressed--especially in comparison to the wedding party guests who made up most of the people at the restaurant. We both ordered the Duck Comfit with bean ragout, roasted potatoes, and fig sauce.

We had another 16 people in our dorm room that night. Karen was blessed to have a couple making out in the bunk below hers. Oh well...

Here is the city gate on the other side of Charles Bridge.
