Prague Jun 21-23 2008 (Part 1)

Over the 21-23 Jun weekend, we went over to Prague for a short holiday. I love Prague. The city is beautiful, with old and nice buildings and it feels good just to be walking around the Old Town. The weather over the 3 days was very very good as well, another factor which made me enjoy the trip more. But it was very very hot and humid at some points.

We tried some of the traditional Czech food which is quite meaty on the whole.


The National Museum behind me.


A Harley motobikes party - I think there were easily > 100 of those big bikes.


The Astronomical Clock


A band playing in the Old Town Square - reminds me of all the numerous band performances I had years ago...


At the Old Town Square with the Church of Our Lady Before Tyn behind me.




Up at the Old Town Hall Tower


View of the Prague Castle from the Tower




View of the Charles Bridge in the background.





Crossing the busy Charles Bridge - a famous historical bridge that crosses the Vltava river in Prague.


A very talented and entertaining band playing on the bridge.

On Sat, we watched the match between Holland and Russia at the big screen at the Old Town Square. It was really exciting to be watching the match with so many other people. However the first half was quite boring...


And sadly, Holland lost. So there goes my £75 sweepstake interest!
