Early morning on the road ~ we tried stopping by the bakery... they were closed
so then we stoped by Spar... they were closed~ Then we realized it was a Holiday.
So we grabbed some packaged snacks from the gas station and headed out.
Sunrise......
Probably should have rolled down the window... it was to early to think that through!
In Czech on our way to Prague or Praha is how they spell it.
The roads in Czech are awful! If you have ever driven the curve on I-5 North of the Tacoma Mall just before the Tacoma Dome~ you know how bad the road is there~ feels like you have a flat.
The road is like that~ pretty much the whole way!
In the City
Main Square
Scariest scaffolding I have ever seen! It was literally sticks tied together.
Church ~ Didn't go in this one
Church to the right we did go in... but, you cant take photos inside.
Roasting a pig
Town Hall
Bohemian Street performers
Press Play to hear the performers.
More of Town Hall Tower
Scary Statue
cool looking building
Never did find a Prague Mug.....
If you have an extra I'll buy it from you or if you go there and they have some get me one!
Street Market
Other side of the town hall tower had a astrological clock
There was so much detail in each corner of the tower
Entrance to tower - Yep we are going to climb to the top!
There was an elevator~ but we chose to walk
looking out some windows on our way up
My favorite window!
Inside of one of the clocks
Looking down from the top of the inside. It was kinda nice it was ramps all the way up.
usually its a ton of stairs!
No worries though~ there were stairs! With a red/green light for going up or down!
As you can see the reflection on the stairs we are waiting on a red light to go up.
Inside walls
View from the top!
Tall building in the back is the Castle church we visited the next day. That will be day 2 blog.
Fall colors ~ We ran out of time and didn't go, but there is a
park at the top of that hill and you can go up in the mini Eiffel tower up there too.
Zoomed in Castle Church & Castle buildings
Looking down on the side we entered the building on.
Looking down on the main square
Church Side (main square off to the right)
Carriages
Don't worry just the camera went out over the street not I to get this pic~
I love decorated man hole covers! Odd~ I know!
Fresh Potato chips on a stick!
You had to be careful or thew would break and fall to the ground.
Hot Honey Wine
Who knows~ that's why I had to quickly snap a pic!
If your wondering its a moan~ He seemed to be with a couple of
buddies who were in jeans and t-shirts. So I don't know what he did to
loose that bet?
one of Gunners favorite series in a book store~
I asked if he wanted me to get it for him.
He laughed and said no.
Vltava River
Swans!!!
I was trying to coax one closer pretending I had food
He didn't buy that my lens cap was food.
Gunner was not thrilled to be in this photo.
We settled for this shot
Im still trying to talk him into a closer group shot~ no such luck
So I found a buddy of his and just zoomed in.
Local Dark Czeck Beer
We decided to try some traditional Czeck food
Caden got ribs
She said they were really good but Grandpa's Ribs are still way better!
I got the pot Roast with traditional dumplings
Jared got the Traditional Czeck Plate
3 different meats & 3 different Dumplings sitting on a bed of Cabbage & onions
Gunner got Fried Chicken & Parsley Potatoes
Our hotel: Our room
Kids room
I was trying to capture how crooked the floor, door way, and wall was.
The photo doesn't do it justice.
But even with a few quirks~ the Apartment was lovely,
clean, and the front desk service was nice!
Main entrance
Street view
Kitchen
Hall way
Stairs out
a few of the stairs had uneven spots it was crazy to walk down them.
Headed out for a few min to get some photos of Prague at night.
There was a concert just down the street~
He was singing in Czech it was so cool!
I could have spent more time listening to him!
Sorry the end is so shaky & cut off. I was trying to
make sure I didn't get run over by a taxi.
