One of these cars is not like the others...

Saw this on my way to my parking spot yesterday!

Snow Day

Sometime back in middle Janurary, we had this beautiful snowy day and a few of us decided to walk up to Altenburg Castle which sits on the highest hill overlooking Bamberg.  Here are some fun views of my new home away from home!
On the way up
My backyard/ courtyard area
The view from my front window

More of New Years in Prague

A view of the castle side of the city
The hotel where we stayed
The restaurant next door.  Cool huh?
The view on the St Charles Bridge of the castle side of the city
When you're on The Charles Bridge, you can't help but take pictures of the 30 statues that are lining it.  Mom thought it was a waste of time, but I couldn't help myself.  This is St. John of Nepomuk and you are supposed to rub the woman for good luck.  The dog side = bad luck, however most people don't realize this until after they've already done it.  Just a heads-up in case you visit!

Back in Old Town Square where the Astronomical Clock is located, this is The Church of Our Lady before Tyn:  Týn Cathedral
 The Powder Tower
 A river view of the Old Town Side
Franz Kafka

 Just a cool building in Old Town Square.....of which there are SO many in Prague
  The Hard Rock Cafe.  Check out this building!
