Today we awoke and had breakfast at the hotel before heading into the city. Instead of the subway we rode a street car through town and along the river, and then transferred to a funicular train that took us up a hillside to a sort of park. We went into a mirror maze, which was short but fun for the girls.

After, we returned to town and found lunch at Subway, and then took a tram up to see the castle and cathedral that overlooks the city. Both were amazing, both in themselves and because of the views over Prague.

We then walked down the hill, partly through gardens and partly through cobblestone streets. We crossed again over the Charles bridge and into the square and had a light dinner at a cafe in the square. It rained a bit as we ate. We then returned by streetcar to the hotel, arriving just before dark. Phyllis and I had a snack at the hotel bar, and then we turned in for the night.
