My God is Prague gorgeous!! Everywhere you look is like magic fairyland! These first three photos were taken the first night from our hotel balcony.

The murals on top of the buildings are exquisite!
The astronomical clock was built in the early 15th century.
The rooftops are stunning.
The Charles Bridge views, just lovely.
These photos are beautiful Cindy.Thanks.

Relax and enjoy your wonderful trip and we will all enjoy sharing it with you when you can post and be waiting eagerly for your return when the time comes 🙂 Thanks for taking the time out to share with us all in this lovely way via your blog!

Prague is suppose to be the city of arts and culture. I was surprised to hear from other that have been there. Lovely set of images–I’m sure that you’ll have more. Enjoy all that you experience.
Thank you so much for appreciating!! Cheers to you~

You are most welcome. Great post. Thanks.
Looks like a fairy tale 🙂
Exactly! Thank you~
What an amazing city – I have always heard that it was a great place to visit – your photos are wonderful.
Aw, very kind. Thank you~
Wow you are seeing some fantastic places! I love all the colors! AWESOME!
Isn’t it gorgeous! Thanks for the appreciation!
I hope you did not miss the Gypsy music of Prague. The hammered dulcimers accompanied by violins is absolutely mesmerizing.
Hmmmmm…….you know I have a Roma great grandmother. I am working on a Roma series now. Will see if we can arrrange this….
Thank you Wally~
Sounds like a great series. Can’t wait for you to start it.
It’s nice to see such lovelys. Most of my associations with Prague are related to WW II stories and the bombing on 2/14/1945.
You are getting the best pics on this grip. Good eye.
Yes the reminders of WWII are sobering. It would be sincerely hard to get bad photos of Prague. Tonight we are off to the opera. Cheers & thank you!
These pictures are amazing as your trip must be. Just curious, do you plan your own itinerary, have a travel agent, or travel with a guided tour?
I plan the trip and select the accomodations. My husband plans the mode of transport. Planning is part of the fun! Cheers & thank you~
That is a place for dreams!
Very much so!! Thank you~
What amazing pictures. I love that clock!
Isn’t it gorgeous. It moves on the hour……Lovely!
Incredible!
I agree!!! Cheers to you~
You are finally in Praha! How did you take some of these birds-eye photos? So colorful and so beautiful! Enjoy!!!
Finally is absolutely correct!! How could I have waited this long!!! Our 7th story very old hotel room has a rooftop view of the city with a little balcony. I can take great shots up here. Tonight we are off to the opera, Rusalka with box seats! I heart Prague!! Cheers to you Fae~
The first two photos remind me of Disney world; Prague looks magical!
It is hard to believe until you actually see with your own eyes. It’s a fairy castle town!! Thank you~
Stunning once again Cindy! I had already wished to see Prague one day. You make it imperative! 🙂
Oh yes. I hope you go soon and be sure to give yourself sufficient time. Prague has very large old cities and so much to explore. Cheers to you Lea & thank you!
Amazing pictures, and a great post – as always!
I have nominated you for three special awards, and you can see the details at the link http://dshenai.wordpress.com/2013/05/21/nominating-10-brilliant-bloggers-for-3-awesome-awards/.
Congratulations on well deserved nominations, and hope that you will accept these awards. Thanks a million in advance. -Deo
I want that clock, Cindy! Failing which, I’d like a working model… failing which (and more likely), to see it in real life (real time?)… What a great trip you are having. RH
They sell working models of the clock, so maybe you should come to Prague. Today we watched the windows open and the characters move like the Munich Glockenspiel. It is absolutely amazing and beautiful so I share your thoughts. Thank you & cheers!
Love Prague – great job capturing its spirit, especially the colors!
Thank you Tina. It is such a stupendously beautiful city it would be hard to take a bad photo. Cheers to you~
magnifique… Thanx for sharing! I’ve been to Prague twice and I’ll certainly return there some day, it’s only 2h-flight from Toulouse and dear “old” friends live in this unique city…
A two hour flight to Prague would be ideal!! Lucky you…… Cheers & go for it!
haven’t decided if gorgeous is grand enough, colorful enough, fantastic enough to cover this beauty…the photos are outstanding
Awww, so kind! Thank you & cheers to you!
wow…these are stunning buildings Cindy, I’m so thankful you are posting these…I’d no idea Prague was such a gorgeous city!!! Enjoy…
In Prague it is impossible to take a bad shot. Thank you for your kind commets. Cheers to you~
Beautiful, indeed, Cindy 🙂 Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for your ongoing encouragement. It is appreciated greatly!!
My kids want to go to Disneyland; I want to go to Prague. Bucket list. {{{hugs}}} Kozo
Just tell them you are taking the long way to Disneyland and hop on a plane to Prague. LOL! ……On second thought, maybe take them to Disneyland when they are young and Prague when they are old enough to appreciate and remember it.
Cheers to you & thank you!
Have I ever told you, Cindy, that you take some really, really amazing shots? I don’t think I have, so I’m saying it now! You take some really, really amazing shots! It’s always a pleasure to look at your photography! 🙂
LOL! Thank you so much Sahm. If the photos make you happy, that makes me happy. Did I ever tell you that your are an amazing poet? Cheers to you my friend and to Blu. Enjoyed her recent posts very much~
Stunning photographs Cindy
Vey glad you like them & thank you!!! Cheers~
So glad you are there to photograph it and share with us! It is absolutely incredible. Have a wonderful time!!
Thank you so much for appreciating them. I loved your blog post about the boy scouts admitting openly gay scouts. Hooray! Progress in the direction of acceptance, compassion and love!!!
My humans have been to Prague and say its beautiful. Hope you’re having a fabulous time! =^.^=
Thank you Bailey! We are. You are such a smart cat! You must figure out a way to go with them the next time they go to Prague!!! Think Bailey think………
Prague!! Lucky duck. Enjoy your time there, Cindy.

You sweetheart!!! Thank you!
Beautiful pictures, a fairy tale, indeed! Thank you for sharing this!
Thank you for appreciating it & welcome!
Cindy,
Thank you for sharing! It looks like you are right in the middle of a beautifully illustrated storybook of make believe illustrations!
How perfectly phrased! Thank you~
Makes Disneyland pale in comparison. But the way you photographed it brought it to life.
Very kind! Thank you. I remember being at The Venetian in Las Vegas and over hearing someone say, “now that we’ve been here, we don’t need to go to Venice.”
YIKES!!! Cheers to you~
Wonderful Prague! Aren’t the spires on the rooftops awesome? I was over that way two years ago and can’t wait for another trip there again. You’ve captured some terrific photos of the architecture. Hope your trip is full of wonderful memories!
Yes Prague is magical. Thank you for your kind comments & hope you go back soon!
Wow! The city is beautiful! Great photos. Thanks for sharing 🙂
Isn’t it a wonderful place! Thank you for your appreciation~
Cindy, what lovely pictures they are so amazing, I don’t have an adequate volcabulary to describe how cool they are. Thank you for sharing them. I would also like to thank you for stopping by my blog and not only liking the post about meeting my MIL, but deciding to follow. I do appreciate your time. Please take care, Bill
It is I who appreciate you. I so admire your bravery, honesty and humor in facing your adversity. Your blog is helpful to so many. So thank you and I am sending my thoughts and prayers for many, many healthy, happy, days and nights ahead for you!
Wow, beautiful pictures. Yes it is gorgeous – I was there 2 years ago.
Even more so via your lens! We visited there in 2012. You post make me want to go back…
Go! Go!! And take more fotos please!!!! <3
I brought my little Sony Cybershot with me last time, I wasn’t into photography like I do now… 🙂 I did posts then were for my colleagues and a few friends. <3
That is just like me! I’ve only been taking photos seriously for about three years and my first real camera was a cybershot!! Don’t tell anyone!! Laughing…. 😎
The third picture from the top is so outstanding– they are all good but that is spectacular, arty, almost cubist.
I love views looking down above the rooftops in old European cities. They look like miniature old villages. I am so glad you noticed and enjoyed! Thank you~
