Got up and had breakfast at hotel. Walked through old town to Charles Bridge and crossed to "Little Quarter." Stopped for coffee at a cafe near the bridge. Walked through St. Nicholas Church, very ornate. Then walked to Vojan Park -- rather wild with some flowers, but lots of great trees. Walked to Wallenstein Palace and garden. Walked through garden -- formal setting with some flowers and fountains. Tried to enter Wallenstein Palace, but it seemed to be closed. Stopped in shops on way back to square. Bought a day tram ticket and took tram back over the river and walked back to Old Town Square. Had a lunch in a small cafe in the courtyard near our hotel. Sausage, cabbage, and beer. Lee had chocolate cake. Returned to hotel and rested. Walked to tram stop and took tram up to the Prague Castle. Got off near gardens and walked through them to Castle. Stopped at cafe for coffee and water. Looked at "little houses" which now have shops. Waited until St. George's Basilica opened for concert and then went in. Great concert. String quartet and soprano. It was raining when we left the concert. Walked down the hill to a tram stop and took a tram for one stop. Stopped at a Cuban restaurant and had starters and prosecco. Stopped for gelato on the way back to hotel, also at local market. I remembered Starbucks mug and returned to last night's cafe to pick it up.
