(LHP - PVP) Look Here Please - Paris, Vienna, Prague: Prague

Our second day in Prague and we are navigating the city quite well. We started off the day at a more leisurely pace than yesterday! Shopping was on the agenda this morning with a few stops at some shoe stores where a pair of red shoes may be waiting for me to pick up tomorrow (Esther and Pascal bought shoes today!)

Then off through the cobblestone streets to the tram en route to Prague Castle. Through the Royal Gardens and we were again in front of this historical and magical castle where Czech leaders have ruled for over 1000 years. It is the biggest castle in the world. Here are a few pics to give you some idea but to really get a feel for it's size you'll have to google the castle or view something on you tube:

Within the castle is St. Vitus cathedral, which includes the tombs and relics of the most important local saints and kings as well as the 3 Hapsburg kings (remember the Hapsburg empire from Vienna).

Time for a little fun:

And meditation ...

Here is a sign advising cars to slow down for children playing:

Here is the same sign that we saw in a section of Prague referred to as The 'new world' - full of artists. Look how they embellished the same sign....
