☔️ There is beauty in the rain...and it does not mean the end of a beautiful day... 🔹So, we plodded along to our pre-booked evening river cruise + dinner + live music down the Vltava River where we flowed gently into the heart of the City of Prague and took in the views as it changed before our eyes - Charles Bridge, Prague Castle and much more (swipe to see). After taking these photos, the rain came...strong winds, cold night on the deck and we were freezing 🥶 And guess what carried on, oblivious to Mother Nature? The music went on, the singing went on and plenty of food and drink...It was one of our best river cruises 🎼💃🏻🕺 - - Follow @ouradventuresmemoriesandj/ Follow @mymoments_through_mylens/ Follow https://www.ouradventuresmemoriesandjournals.com/ Or Link in bio.

It was uncomfortable at times and my arms ached but I did not put it away - no pain no gain, right? - - ♦️Do you have a love for Red Roofs? Do you go to any lengths to snap a picture?

This looks weird! And it is! - - 🔸Apparently, if you look at it long enough, you can pick out images of animals, monsters and random distorted faces! - - 🔸This eerie, weird, unusual and fascinating wall is known as “The Grotta” or “Dripstone Wall” (Pic. 3), which can be found in a secluded part of a lush garden (Pic. 2) in Wallenstein Palace, in the heart of Prague. - - 🔸Though it looks like dripping skulls, it is actually made of stalactites-like rocks assembled to give a haunting look. - - 🔸This Wall also presents a 500-year mystery waiting to be solved! It contains clues to secret passage ways behind those walls and it can only be accessible by those bright enough to discern the pattern. - - 🔸Would you like to have a go at cracking the mystery? Or can you pick out the hidden images? Or this is totally weird for your liking?

The incredible architecture with its finer details and stained glass windows speaks for itself. With the sunlight coming through into this large and airy space invoked a somewhat sense of peacefulness which I had not experienced elsewhere before. - - 🆕 Southwark Cathedral ~ Why you should visit this Oldest Gothic Cathedral in London?
