8 hours walking Prague

So how much can you see in 8 hrs - lots but not nearly all!!! 1st it's worth remembering that the Czechs were freed from Communist rule by the Velvet Revolution in 1989 - only 21 years ago. So many of the people we walked among were the pro freedom demonstrators if a few years ago! To us this was amazing!!! The buildings are for the most part art nouveau. I think from about 1900 but I am not sure. In any case magnificent. It's a city ful of people walking. Dressed well, very litle obesity, tending young. hip and on the go!!!
Plenty of places to drink beer, all food eaten so far has been excellent. O no, after only a hour respite we are going out again. Dinner about 9 then maybe some of the famous Prague night life.
