Prague Castle

I was concerned that Pat would not get to see Prague Castle since his back was hurting him so much but after the visit with the massage therapist and some pain medicine he was feeling up to it so we took a taxi to the castle. It isn't that the castle is far but we didn't want to stress Pat's back any more than necessary. The line wasn't too long to get into St. Vitus Cathedral so we only had a wait a few minutes. I think everyone really enjoyed the cathedral. It is an amazing place. We continued on to The Old Royal Palace, St George's Basilica and Golden Lane. We got a kick out of the small doors in the Royal Palace since Pat took up almost the entire door. We walked down from the castle to the metro and since Pat was still feeling ok we headed into the Wallenstein Gardens. The kids had fun feeding the fish and seeing the peacocks. After that busy morning we headed back so Nathan could nap and Pat could rest his back. I, of course, headed off to take Watson for a walk and to get Sofia from school. Once I got back, I dropped Sofia off at home to stay with Aunt Carrie and I took Pat back to the massage guy. I decided I needed some down time so i sat in the lounge area and read my book. Once Pat was finished we hopped in a cab and went to the beer garden in Letna Park. Jason had gotten out early and had picked up Carrie and the kids and met us at the Beer Garden. We unfortunately had not really thought about the fact that is was cold out. The last couple of days have been chilly again. So, after one beer and enjoying the view we decided to head home. We put the kids to bed and spent the evening chatting. It was a nice way to finish up their visit here. We said goodbye to Pat, Carrie, and Nathan this morning as we sent them on their way to the airport at 7am. It was great to have them here and I hope they have the chance to come again for another visit.
