City center, Christmas market, Charles Bridge, Austronmical clock & Prague Castle were the main attractions for our short stay in Prague.
The food here is incredible. We’ve been eating local cuisine as much as possible. Lots of potato dumplings, halusky (not as good as Grandpas!!), mash, bread dumplings kabobs, schnitzel, goulash, beer sausage, sparrow and wow for dessert treats! Trdelnik is my new favorite!
Alec was sick today & had to stay at the apartment while the rest of us explored the Prague Castle & Charles Bridge. Poor kid always seems to get sick when we travel.
So about that clock….I don’t get the attraction. Every hour the skeleton dings a bell. The clock doesn’t keep time as it’s an astronomical. It’s shifting throughout the day, but I don’t understand what it’s telling me. Possibly I’m just not well enough educated to find the appreciation. It’s beautiful, I’ll give it that.
We kept things pretty low key our last night in Prague with a game of cards. Up early tomorrow for a travel day driving to Krakow. It’s about 500 miles & we plan to stop at the Bone Church on the way.
