arrived in Prague, exchanged money, caught the bus to the metro... 30 minutes of winding roads up and down hills, if I hadn't been trying to hold onto my bags and keep them from tipping into the caustic and wary-looking grandmotherly type sitting across from me, I would have snapped pictures. got to the Metro Station at Nove Botovice, and went underground to Karlovo Namesti and came up from underground to lovely weather and GLORIOUS Art Nouveau plasterwork on the building facades... I got pictures. will upload later. I'm sure I looked quite the traveling geek, with my bags falling about on the ground and me snapping pictures of building facades... I walked up the block toward our rented apartment and turned the corner right into the Architectural FRED AND GINGER... also known as the "dancing buildings"... one of the architectural landmarks of Prague... and guess what?!?! our place is right across the street... third floor and it looks out onto the Vltava River... absolutely gorgeous.
now for food.... and some light sightseeing!
there's nothing quite like ARRIVING for lifting weary spirits, eh?
