I drove a bit of the way and I actually drove over the Germany/Czech border, which means there is a place in Europe that I have driven before my husband! Driving the German roads can be a bit nerve-wracking. I'm sure if I did it more often, I'd be fine but there is something a bit disconcerting about being passed when you're already driving 95 mph!
We have a GPS in our car and Ole has one on his phone. We installed maps for Eastern Europe on both before we left but neither of them would navigate over the German border. We knew the maps were loaded so we just hoped for the best and thankfully, once we drove into the Czech Republic, the GPS did wake up and realize where it was! Which meant we were able to find our hotel - whew!
This is a view from our room - we are right on a busy street but across the street is a gorgeous park:
Last night we took a dinner cruise on the river to see Prague by night.
Either my camera doesn't have the ability to take decent night pictures, or I personally don't have the ability to use the camera - either is possible! But here is the best I could do - Prague Castle at about 10 pm:
Today we're headed over to see Prague Castle and explore the area.
One more random observation before I go:
They have some really, really big doors on these buildings... It's hard to judge the scale but that white box are you see is about even with my head.
