On to Praha (Prague) in the Czech Republic. Melanie's great-grandparents, Charles Mykolashek and Marie Faltus, came from the former Czechoslovakia. Prague is home to the largest ancient castle in the world. and has been home to kings, emperors and presidents. The Czech crown jewels are housed there. Here is John at the corner of the main square for the Prague Christmas market.
Melanie standing in front of the remarkable Prague Astronomical Clock, a medieval clock that features "The Walk of the Apostles", an hourly show of figures of the Apostles and other moving sculpures, located on the Old Town City Hall, right next to the Christmas Markets. We wandered a few blocks from the main square to a huge upscale shopping area called Wenceslas Square which also had Christmas Market booths. A lovely stroll through Prague.
This gingerbread house was in the lobby of the Marriott Hotel we stayed in
