Prague, Days 4-5
On Monday and Tuesday, we donned our walking shoes and climbed towers (and were rewarded with some great views), explored the Malá Strana, or the “Little Quarter,” and visited Prague Castle. I don’t even care to think about the number of steps we climbed and miles we walked down cobblestone streets. Our sore legs are keeping track well enough for us.
Getting around the city and figuring out where buses and trams run is far easier than anything I’ve encountered in America. All of the stops have schedules posted for that location, and the map of the city that we’re using, by the Marco Polo company, has the route numbers and the stops drawn right onto the map. The level of detail captured on a single page is astounding.
I also found time to fit in another run. I like the Czechs propensity to make trails through any place that doesn’t have a sidewalk but should. There’s an unusual field/park/forest just south of where we are staying, and it contains enough variety that I haven’t yet been down the same path twice.
