October 18 - Prague - Day 4



Today it was cloudy and a bit foggy so not a good day for picture taking but that's ok since we went back to some of the places we had visited the first day on our tour so that we could explore more leisurely.  We revisited the old town square with the astrological clock, St Nicholas church and Jacques wanted to look at the big hams on spits cooking on wood fires.

Looks good but biggest tourist trap in Prague


We then went back over the Charles bridge taking our time to look at all the statues on the way.




We found a place for lunch a bit away from the crowds where Jacques was able to have the pork knuckle that he had been wanting to try since our arrival.


We returned home following the river on a more quiet bridge which ended up not far from the dancing house (nicknamed Fred and Ginger) that was on my to do list.




We found where tonight's geocaching event that we were co hosting was going to be. What a caching event that turned out to be.  We arrived about 15 minutes early and the room was already full (It was a small room). Not many spoke English so there were a few gestures and a few quiet moments but as soon as we took out the trackables that we had brought with us, all the cellphone cameras came out. Everybody was around the table taking pictures. They gave us some to take back to Canada. It was the weirdest event we ever went to and we were the hosts.


Since we'd had a big lunch we decided to go for a soup for supper. Well that came with our own pot which as about 3 bowls each. Needless to say, we over ate again.


Tomorrow is our last full day. As much fun as it has been, I'll be happy to see my bed and house again.
