Still hanging out walking around…..
Crossed Charles Bridge… The bridge was packed with tourist…with stalls, artist painting portraits and music from band players.
Sat down on a bench for a little rest while I took these…wanted to try slowing down the shutter to get the tram with blur and the building in the background.

Back on The Bridge
Went back to the bridge to check out a jewish area. Wanted to check out a very interesting spot the, The Jewish Cemetery.
It was pretty expensive to get a pass to visit the jewish area… It was some jewish synagogue and some jewish museum…was not interested in all those. Just wanted to see the cemetery. Had to pay for a package thing….Would have gotten a discount, but I left my student card back home. Showed that OLD jewish woman my passport with a big STUDENT visa sticker on it and she said no. I was pissed. what can I say……they know how to make more money…*COUGH*
The museum did not interest me at all, maybe due to the price of the ticket as compared to what was there. However, the cemetery was worth it.
It is 400 over years old, and it was massive with over-stacking tombs everywhere.
Interesting!
After that back to town…walked around and head home.
Old Town Square
Had a beer while relaxing at the square. Beer cost 89 czk.
Clock Tower
Thanks to the new Iphone, I made this with iMovie…I held it vertically..should have held it horizontally.
Very old building as well. Apparently it was bombed by the germans during world war and the building was actually bigger but got smaller due to the destruction. Anddddddd… as it was told…after making this, the clock maker was blinded by the king so he would not be able to make another. He committed suicide by jumping into the gears of the clock to wreck it.
Got back to the hotel….changed and went to Bellevue for our dinner. Awesome Anniversary Dinner!
Quite poor after that but worth every bit to see her smile.
