A note on cathedrals, and Day 3 in brief

I need to get ready for the opera, so I can't update in detail (will try to do that later tonight, or back in Nottingham tomorrow, depending on how late I get back tonight). But I did make it to the Prague Castle and the Museum of Communism (and yes, Mom, I did see that statue on the Charles Bridge).

St. Vitus Cathedral -- impressive? Sure. Pretty? You bet. Did I feel anything more than the most perfunctory sense of awe and wonder (if that)? Hell no. Yes, folks, I'm officially 100% jaded when it comes to cathedrals. Though admittedly, after Notre Dame and the Vatican, it's pretty much inevitably downhill.
