Day 11-Final Day in Prague :-(

We planned to spend our final day in Prague just walking around and getting one last view of everything.

No one else wanted "to see another church" so I ran in real quick and took a snap.  I would have loved to walk around more.

Ryan and I toured the Old-New Synogogue while John and David had a pint.  This is the Jewish Ceremonial Hall used for burials.

This is where we found John and David.  It's the pub where the owner painted cartoons all over the wall.  David bought the English version.  It's interesting as you can tell by the below drawing!  Something like this would never be in America!

I wanted to walk across the Charles Bridge during the daylight.  This is a statue of Emperor Charles who commissioned the bridge.

I wanted to go up the tower so David went with me.

David called himself The Ninja-Knight.  Such a little kid!

This statue looked like it had been there a long time.  Most of it's face was missing.

John got this new hat.  I haven't told him but the colors remind me of Harry Potter :-)

Ryan bought herself a new Lacoste jacked and Fendi bag while shopping on Paris Street.

I love Ryan dearly but the 2 times we got turned around in Czech was at the hands of Ryan.  Going to dinner our final night was one of those 2 times.  It was a good local pub and the waiter loved Ryan!

You can see how cold it was by David's mouth!

David said this was the Czech version of CHIPs

After dinner we went to a sex museum.  Oh my goodness is all I have to say!

My look here says it all!

This brings an end to our vacation.  We had the most amazing time and I can't thank my mom enough for watching Reese for us.  I wouldn't have had a good time if I didn't know she was well cared for.  If you are thinking about visiting Europe I HIGHLY suggest Prague!  I would love to go back one day.
