We started the day off with a guided bike tour of Prague. We were able to do much more in 3 hours on a bike that we ever would on foot. We rode through the enchanting streets in the town center, along the lovely River Vltava, and out into Prague's vast and uncharted parks. We heard great stories and had many photo opportunities-a fantastic way to explore Prague!
One of the things we saw on our bike tour-a wall dedicated to John Lennon. A 3-D sculpture of his head is to the left of "Imagine."
Then we had a terrific lunch a the Hotel U Prince in Old Town Square. We had beautiful views and fabulous weather.
Old Town Square is magical with beautiful buildings that tell the tale of Prague's history. The Astronomical Clock on the Old Town Hall dates from 1490 and is like a giant storybook with a procession of Apostles, a crowing rooster, a skeleton that rings the bell and the centerpiece of seasonal and zodiac dials show the movement of the Earth. It is well worth waiting until the top of the hour to watch.
One of Prague's architectural gems is the Tyn Church with beautiful gothic spires.
