Home Sweet Home!

Finally back from my travels to Prague. The conference went really well, and I had an amazing time.

The first few days were a bit lonely, I was stuck on my own and sight seeing was dulled by lots of rain.
Still beautiful of course!

It wasn't as bad as it could be though, Monkey Jim came too.
Well, if they are going to give you two single beds.
 One of the most poignant things I saw was the Memorial to the Victims of Communism, it's absolutely lovely all lit up at night too.
Memorial to the Victims of Communism
Absolutely everything was covered in graffiti, it was a shame in a lot of cases, but I really liked this one.


This was a park in the Castle Gardens, such a beautiful place to just sit for a while!

This is Catworm. A purchase from the Charles Bridge. His little face cheered me up and I couldn't not buy him!
Brooches are grown up, so this is grown up... right?

On Sunday I managed to track down the place the conference was held. This is the view from just down the back! An absolutely glorious day and a stunning view.

This is the place the conference was held. We were in the bottom room.

This is a selection of some of the fantastic people I met at the conference. It was a total honour, these ladies were so inspiring.

Here's Lenin and I. We hung.

A park I stumbled across on the last day! I sat, read, and enjoyed the view. Bliss!


My biggest regret was not seeing the Jewish quarter. I had saved it for my last day as I was so excited, then realised there was a religious holiday! Everything was closed. I kicked myself so much over it.

Has anyone else been? What would you recommend? (I'm planning to go back soon.)
