My last day in Prague, the sun decided to come out, not just for the first time here, but the first time in many weeks anywhere in Eastern Europe. 
I knew I had a good view out the window of my boat hotel, but in the sunrise, it's like a painting
                      The only way to see Prague on a day like this is to look up 
                          There are sculptures everywhere, way up high 
This is a modern-looking woman 
Why doesn't every country have a bronze chariot & horses galloping off a tall building? 
               Why doesn't public art have this kind of richness & grandeur anymore? 
The middle building has something interesting looking way, way up at the top 
                                  Oh...it's a svelte & confident fellow 
What is hanging off this apartment building? 
A man in a suit with a briefcase, hanging onto an umbrella 
This is the Dancing Building. It's in honor of Fred Astaire (the straight building on the right) & Ginger Rogers (the curved one on the left). 
                            These statues often capture such motion & emotion  
Goodbye river, goodbye Charles Bridge, goodbye grand, over-the-top Prague. I'll miss you. 
 
 
bye Prague!
