Walking the same famous path as first completed by Charles IV, the first Holy Roman Emperor to be seated in Prague, and thereby crossing the scenic Charles Bridge, the group made its first excursion of the day with a visit to Prague Castle. Towering over the city landscape, the numerous art galleries, cathedrals, and exhibits not only enlightened us, but the castle also gave us an unparalleled view of the historic city. After grabbing some lunch near a french-inspired festival, the group used some free time to enjoy the city - and its river (paddle boating)! Just before dinner we were able to check out the Museum of Communism, reminding us of the city's more recent past. To close out the day's events, the group participated in an escape-room challenge, working together to "defuse a bomb during the Cold War" and to "break out of a Communist-controlled prison to join the revolution." And who said history wasn't fun? Here are just a few of the photos we were able to capture... hopefully tomorrow we can share more!
