Prague - Just Incredible

We left Budapest this morning, the 30th July, after a wonderful three days.

Got into Prague after a connection, at 2-30pm and arrived at our hotel at about 3-00pm. By four o'çlock we were walking. I didn't think that we would find another place where every time you turned your head, another fantastic vista appears.

I have probably put too many photo's up here today but couldn't help myself. The city is a lot more intimate then Budapest. the river is narrower and the amazing buildings that line the river bank, feel very close as you journey down the river.

Oh the first thing we did, by the way, is take a river boat trip, a great thing to do in order to quickly get a feel for things. We then just walked around the city with our mouths open, and the camera clicking :-) . Here is a small sample.....

The walk from our hotel to Prague Castle
It's the 1st Aug and our last day in Prague. I thought it was going to be a "photo free" day today, but I couldn't resist, so here is a small offering. What an amazing place this is, and we are off to another one tomorrow - London :-)
