We had the whole city in front of us. Like I told the big guy, we have a blank canvas, we can color it any way we want to. And I do believe we have started a masterpiece.

Walked wherever we could. Went passed Lennon’s Wall. The only place where graffiti is legit. It started under the communist regime. Young people would write on this wall words or drawings of protest during the night, and in the daytime the authorities would paint over it. This went on for years, until the rulers just gave up. Called Lennon’s Wall, not because John ever visited the place, but because the kids would listen to the Beatles.

Sometimes taking a shortcut pays off. Saw a young man weaving and selling his wares. He did amazing work. He picked out a scarf for me, and of course I had to have it. He learned this trade from his mother.

Last night we had an authentic Czech dinner at a cafe called Mama Rose. A very small place, with a great atmosphere.They offered their aperitif of a local schnapps. She told us it would get our appetites going. All I can say is, if I ever get a cold or the Welsh crud, I am drinking that stuff. And because I have been taking it slow with the alcohol intake, I drank it very slow. We got the glasses, too.

I spent quite a lot of time in the church of St. Nicholas. He is the patron saint of Prague. Very ornate, lots of altars, and exquisite paintings. I always light candles when I visit a church, no matter where I am, but on this particular day, there were none. That is because the night before Easter everything is made new again. They bless the water, the light and new life begins.

Weather is suppose to be bad again today, but it won’t stop us.
