Back at the hotel, Dorothea, Ben and I met in the bar for a nightcap and to plan for tomorrow. We have a free day, and have worked out some things that we want to do. It is now 3 AM and time for bed. I have a message that my son Scott, who is only a few miles away in Germany has tried to call. I would like to see him, but it is going to be hard to connect, even though it is such a short distance between us.
Today is a free day.
The collections in the museum somehow don't live up to the elegance and splendor of the building, however, and leave the visitor feeling that he or she came to visit the structure, rather than the contents. Still, very impressive. After the museum, Ben, Dorothea, Gabriella, Betsy and I went on a walking tour of the Square. I bought some Czech beer and liquor to take back home in a grocery store, where the price is much lower than in the tourist oriented stores. We ate lunch at the Pizzeria Castello in the Square.
