We went to the city centre's biggest shopping area called Wenceslas Square, made famous by the demonstration in 1989, called The "Velvet Revolution," which was the end of Communist Rule. In this square you can find high fashion and music megastores, in addition to people from all over the world having a good time.
Along our travels, we stopped at a very famoun beer Hall called U Fleku, which is the name of Prague's own brew. Had a traditional Czech lunch, as we listened to an accordian player. People were getting out of their taxis and the place got crowded and became a lively scene. Haven't been to a beer hall like this one since we were in Munich many years ago. Here is a picture.
Last night we went to the St. Climent Cathedral, which was build in the 18th century and is known for its excellent acoustics. We had the plesure of seeing a wonderful concert there. Prague is a city filled with music. Actually they spell Prague here Praha.
We are posting another picture of Anita and I on the Charles Bridge. It is very famous and only allows pedestrians. You can find musicians, artists, and see puppet shows while wandering along. The scenery is beautiful.
Happy Mother's Day to all and we wish you well.
Regards,
Marc & Anita
