Little Mother Prague

Yep, it’s as pretty as they say.  I had vaguely hoped it wouldn’t be, so I could be jaded and wordly and all "I mean, it’s nice enough, I s’pose…", but it really is kind of awesome.  Spires and bridges and Gothic and Baroque, with big old splashes of Art Nouveau to keep things interesting.

Most surprising: Svičkova(beef and dumplings and gravy and friends) is tasty.

Least surprising: I’m now a huge Mucha fan.

Most obvious: Sightseeing in winter is rather unpleasant.
