File Under Things Never to Do Again

A word of warning to any future tourists who may be visiting Prague - stay away from the puppet version of Don Giovanni. Not only is Motzart's opera dull and trite but when you see it animated by a troupe of very average looking puppets, complete with the puppeteers hats occasionally bobbing up from behind the set, with an average sound recording, well it turns into a steaming pile of turd.

Today was a better day though. We crossed the bridge again to visit Hradancy again and take in the stunning vistas, visit a monastery featuring a library that had books from the first millennium, a convenant and various scenic streets.

Tonight is jazz clubs and beer. Oh and I forgot to add in earlier posts that we are currently staying in a hostel that used to host former Czech Prime Minister and (I think) Nobel prize winning playwrite Valclav Havel. When he was imprisoned! Yes we are staying in converted prison cells.
