We had beautiful weather in Prague today. It was sunny and not too cold. We saw the Prague castle, the cathedral, the Charles bridge, the John Lennon wall, and much more. We climbed the tower at the end of the Charles bridge and took pictures of the amazing view of the castle.
We noticed many women wearing fur hats and/or coats. Toddlers are in little sleeping bags that attach to their strollers. They look very comfy going around town.
We had a great lunch of traditional dumplings--some people had duck, pork, soup, or chicken with the dumplings.
Last night we saw the astronomical clock and went to a Christmas market in the old town square. We ate chicken kebabs, ham, and a traditional Czech pastry that is wound around a rod, baked in the fire, then rolled in sugar, cinnamon, and almonds. There was a big beautiful Christmas tree and a band playing. We also went on a ghost tour in the dark and heard many legends about murdered and executed people. The students captured some spirits on their cameras when we were underground in the old city.
