After dinner with the Czech members we decided to walk around the famous castle in Prague. The guards let us in and we learned that it was the largest castle in Europe and perhaps the whole world. In the middle of the palace complex was a huge gothic church that was commissioned by guess who.... King Charles (my ancestor) He also has a statue of him at Charles' bridge that we hope to see tomorrow. I guess he lived here too and had a goal to build up Prague. The woman that we were with said that I have his nose. Evidently he had a long nose. It kind of brings this city to life to know these things. I have heard about Charles bridge for many years. Who knew. They love him here, they even call him Charley.
