FROM A FRIEND WHO IS PERFORMING IN THE CZECH REPUBLIC
This is another magical city. It's truly a gem with a mix of architectural
styles that somehow add up to splendid. We've been here since Sunday night,
but sadly have to leave tomorrow to head back to CR and our remaining dates.
Five shows to go, and then home. We will get another short break which we
intend to save for Prague. I've been there twice, but have had no time to
relax and watch the world (and I do mean the world) go by.
Krakow is a lovely place to visit, and we lucked into a small hotel which is
luxurious in comparison to some of our recent lodging. Think communist
dormitories when you try to imagine our recent hotels. Not all, but many.
Vienna is very grand, but we are spoiled by Prague. If I had not seen Prague
first, I would probaly see Vienna as jaw-droppingly beautiful. It is lovely,
but it lacks the ineffable magic of Prague. I look forward to our next
little break there. And Vienna is expensive....
But, these few days in Krakow rival Prague. Food has been great, the weather
has blessed us by not being too hot (I've been melting in other places).
Must go....it's too beautiful a place to sit in an internet cafe....safe travels.
