Praha - Day 5 - Peanut's Day Out

Peanut is my traveling companion in the absence of Anthony, since Anthony has Eddie, his pal since the day he was born, it was felt I should have a pal too.

On the last day of my Prague visit, I decided that I should take Peanut out and show him the city. I think he really enjoyed himself, he had a smile on his face all day long. And it was a glorious warm and sunny day.

We started off the day walking down Wenceslas Square, which has a great front view of the national museum.

At the Lucerna Palace off Wenceslas Square, you can find one of David Černý's sculptures. Entitled Horse, it represents St. Wenceslas raiding a dead horse.

Inside the National Museum. We got bored of that quickly.

Another of Černý's sculptures can be found crawling over the Prague TV Tower. Allegedly it's an homage to materialism, I thought was kinda creepy in a cool sort of way.

City view from a park.

A great example of art nouveau architecture. The Europa Hotel.

And we got to ride the tram.

Another example of Frank Gehry's somewhat irresponsible architecture - Dancing House.

The home of Prague's Philharmonic Orchestra - Municipal House - is another example of the city's impressive architecture.

After a hard day of touristing, we needed a caramel frappucino break.

And alas, that was the end of our little weekend getaway. We buckled up and headed back to London.
