Showing Leah the sites

Today Leah, the girls and I headed up to the castle. Leah wanted to see St Vitus and didn't really care about the rest of the castle so it was going to be an easy trip. I was surprised at how many tourists were at the castle. There aren't nearly as many as the summer but more than I expected. I guess I will have to wait for January for Prague to be empty. Anyway, we got up to the castle and took pictures and got to the cathedral and I noticed the doors were closed. Unfortunately for us the cathedral had just closed. I thought, oh well, another day. We decided to head down to the Charles Bridge. As we headed out into Hradcanske Namesti we had to wait for the changing of the guard. It was interesting to watch since we hadn't seen it before. While in Hradcanske Namesti I did my job as an excellent tour guide...."that house is famous.....i think it is maybe the arch bishop's house. That house is also famous....I don't know whose it was but I like the art on it". Leah was very impressed with my guiding skills. (HaHa) Anyway, we headed down into Mala Strana and Leah took pictures while the girls and I slowly walked. We headed across the Charles Bridge where Leah stopped to buy some gifts. By this time it was getting late and it was dark and cold so we headed back to the tram and home for dinner. It was a slow start to the the wonders of Prague but we all had a good time.
