Back in Prague

We checked our "living" barometer this morning, and decided it was going to be a nice day, since our pigeon friends were all lined up and ready for takeoff.


So, we headed downtown......


A new "statue" at the foot of Wenceslas Square..




The riverbank walk.....

Where have all the tourists gone?





Certainly not here. As much as we love boats, even we decided to pass on lunch on the water.








Still beautiful.....


The Charles Bridge




We are always so amazed that we actually live in this beautiful city!

Life at the top

After seeing the sights in Prague, we headed out to the country with Sandy and Jack. One of the Lazy River specialties is our guided tour to the lookout post over the river.

The weather was absolutely wonderful for hiking, so we were able to enjoy the view once again!




Take that, young,uns!

We've still got what it takes!




On the edge!




Enjoying the view...




Life is good!

a visit from Sandy and Jack

We are so happy to have Mike's Mom, Sandy, and Jack visiting us this month. We have been dragging them all over Prague, and in a few days we will be off to the country with a stay in Loket.




This tram goes where?!?




On the way to the castle...





Jack is enjoying traditional Czech fare - the pork knee...............





The Municipal House Cafe. We sat outside to enjoy coffee and traditional Czech honeycake because there was a small orchestra playing some lovely classical music. Then we all went inside to appreciate the Art Deco interior!
