Loved Prague. Had a day or so to catch the few things I had missed the first week (well, I did say I loved Prague). No time to write details - not as disciplined as last time :/ Got to the Kampa Museum of Contemporary Art, Lennon Wall, the Dancing Building, Old/New Synagogue, a few more public art displays and wandered in the late autumn sunshine. It rained all morning and then the sun peeped out at 1pm just in time for me to walk back across the river. Got this far on the trip and had to buy a brolly - just too wet to escape in the morning and no time left to wait.
On my last night I had a ticket to the Prague Symphony Orchestra at Municipal House. 1200 seats between 65-70 musicians and wonderful music in an old and revered theatre that demonstrates the development of Prague across the years through each political system. Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful. Actually the variety of program made me feel for the musicians. There were loud stiring pieces, gentle springtime melodies, solos by harp, horn and violin. The violins certainly seem to be the workhorses of the orchestra.
