Prague

The last weekend in May was a long weekend so we took the opportunity to visit Prague. It's only a 5 hour trip from Budapest...which just cracks me up. In 5 hours we went through 3 countries: Hungary, Slovakia and the Czech Republic. In Houston I could maybe get to Dallas in 5 hours.

On Saturday it was a bit rainy but we still managed to take a nice log walk around town.

Here's the whole family in the Old Town Square.

The kids and I pose for a picture on the Charles Bridge, an important Prague landmark. Lots of walking this day...the Charles Bridge was located about halfway between our hotel and the Prague Castle (seen way in the background) where we ended our walking tour...but we still had to walk all the way back!

Outside the Prague Castle.
On Sunday we went to the Prague Zoo and met our friends, the Gardners.
We got to see the penguins (Grandpa's favorite) really up close. No zoom needed!
The Zoo had several play areas where we stopped to have some fun.
Vito liked the tiger exhibit.
And of course we needed some ice cream to cap off the day.

We had a great time in Prague!
