Pretty, Pretty Prague

Well you were certainly right Jacqui, when you told me that Prague is ever so pretty! We arrived here in the afternoon yesterday, and after a casual stroll we dined out last evening at a local place and enjoyed both food and Czech Republic Pilsner beers.
We were on the road again @ 8:30am - walking with our guide on the most amazing architectural tour of many of Prague's pride and joy buildings and facilities.










Michael and I then broke away from the group and paid a visit for Mass (a belated visit at that) to the famed Our Lady of the Snow Cathedral, with ceilings of over 100ft high.








Following Mass, we entered an iron archway at the side of the Cathedral and found ourselves in the "most beautiful of beer gardens in Prague". As you will see in photos the high and ancient walls of the Church form an integral part of this secret paradise.










This evening has been spent in dining at our hotel, enjoying the company of two couples from the States.
Tomorrow morning we go by bus to visit Castle Hill and a number of other Prague highlights; and then our final dinner on our final night of the Tauk Tour is to be held at what we are told is yet another stunning Palace.
By the end of tomorrow evening we shall bid farewell to 38 people who have spent the last 14 days with us. Some we shall be quite glad to bid goodbye, and yet others we shall miss and hope to keep contact with via the miracle of email etc.
We then have a final day in Prague for rest, laundry and preparations of our much anticipated visit of Paris and Nancy - and of course our reunion with Lorene and her family!
The number of days before heading home are getting less - and yet there are so many wonderful, exciting and incredible experiences yet to be had!!!!!

Love to all....... And go the Cats!!!!!!!!
