He arrived on Friday afternoon & headed straight to visit the Infant of Prague- in a modest church which sits almost directly on the road- causing the re-routing of all the trams & traffic that head down that side of the river. People love that. Lily really thought we should head out to see him, but, sadly (?), after we promised her that we would, he left for other parts of the Czech Republic. I guess we dodged a bullet there- the crowds were ridiculous everywhere he went, with people getting there at 4:00 am for an afternoon appearance. Just like Madonna. Or the opening of a Wallmart.
So, to alleviate the crushing disappointment, we decided to take the kids skating in Letna- a big park at the top of the city with beautiful views- which connects to one end of the castle grounds. The day was sunny & warm (one last hurrah before in came the cold & the wet that we are now enjoying) & we are able to get there with one tram & very little pain- always a good start to an outing.
(And lastly, of course, one should end any successful outing by doing Burpees on the tram...)
Nice! Looks like a beautiful outing. And Lily looks a bit older than 12. . . good lord.
ReplyDeleteLovely day. Too bad about the Pope, but you managed to find a delightful alternative. Nice photos.
