Angel Sculpture, Prague, Czech Republic

Boating on the Vltava


Boating on the River Vtlava, Prague, Czech Republic
These folks are enjoying gentle peddleboats with Prague as their backdrop. What a lovely way to spend an afternoon! We spent about 20 hours in Prague on a stop-over and we definitely want to return.
