Today we didn't need to worry about rain. We headed off to the Dvorak where we learned more about Antonin Dvorak. It was very interesting. There was a lot there about, 'New World Symphony', which was written in New York.
Then we headed to the castle where we listened to a concert--piano and viola. After that we toured the castle, and the cathedrals, and towers. The castle was built in 870 and is the largest ancient castle in the world.
We had a three mile walk back to the hotel where we were storing our luggage. We stopped at a restaurant and had authentic Czech food--James had Svickova and I had gulas. James' was better. It was sweetened with carrots and sour cream. Mine had beef, and a gravy like sauce and two different kids of dumplings--one of which was Knedlicky.
Now it is a little after 9:00 PM and we are waiting for a taxi to pick us up at 9:40 and take us to the train station. Our train to Krakow leaves at 10:30 PM and we arrive in Krakow at 5:45 AM. Lauren's parents, David and Lisa are arriving in Krakow from Gdansk tonight and we will meet up with them in the morning.
