Description
This is the iconic Charles Bridge over the Vlatava River in Prague. It has seen a lot of history and government changes since its construction during the late Middle Ages. Gas lanterns are interspersed with sculpted saints. The first time I visited Prague was in 1977. It was a grim time run by an authoritarian Communist regime. Very few westerners ventured there as tourists. Control was tight and spirits subdued. When I came back twice within the last ten years, things had changed completely. the whole world wanted to visit Prague. And probably did. Last September was crowded with people from every continent. But that was before the virus came to town. And so we wait again for better times.

I have been there only once following up on my heritage and I can't get it out of my mind since then! It is my favorite city in the world . . .

Ira Shander replied:
Prague is like the hometown in my heart. I've visited three times. I live just outside of Philadelphia.
