Prague Day 2

 We woke up in Prague to a very traditional breakfast of bread, cheese and meat and some yogurt. We headed straight out after to get going on our day. We had a lot of things to cover since we missed some hours yesterday so we rented bikes to speed up the travel.
 We found this gorgeous summer home that this guy turned into a museum.
 We went up some big hills and traveled through a bunch of parks to find some gorgeous views of Prague. I really wish these pictures did it justice. It is just an endless sea of red rooftops and Baroque architecture.
 We made it just in time to the Prague castle to see the changing of the guards.
 We don't know that guy...
 This is one of the most beautiful cathedrals I have ever seen. I love cathedrals! It had gorgeous stain glass windows and went through a fire long ago but still looks great. It is in the middle of the Prague castle corridors which is the biggest castle grounds in the world....if Mike remembers right?



 While we were at the castle we got to see some sweet armor and shoot this crossbow at a target. I hate to rub it in but I smoked Mike! I think he was a little surprised but then again, I did do a project on Annie Oakley when I was in 4th grade.
 Ya gotta love the street performers. These guys were gerat!
This is a famous Opera house 

We got everything we needed in and headed to the train station. We are now staying in a cute little hotel in Vienna listening to Seinfeld in German.
