Ghosts On Tour - 2006 - Day 14 (October 12)

We woke up early and took the morning traing to Prague. Stayed in a fantastic hostel that even did our washing for us (yay - we needed it badly).

We wandered around Prague and booked what we thought was opera tickets for the next evening. We also saw many heavily armoured police with sub-machine guns practically everywhere but we weren't allowed to take photos of them (I asked).

In the evening we found that there were many small concerts being held in churches all over town - string quartets, guitar trios and the like. As it turns out, these were played by music students and it was reasonable but not fantastic.

The royal palace and the Vlatva river (every bit as stunning as Smetana's music portrays it)
