I'm Bone to be Wild!
... digging up old bones, and legend has it that some blind monk??! Started arranging them into geometric shapes... but then later on František Rint was commissioned to decorate the inside of the church. There are chandeliers, coat of Arms, and pillars all made from human bones.. It's in some ways beautiful.. but when you think about it.. pretty disgusting!!!
However it was great to go and visit, because when else in my life am I ...
Kutna Hora
We had a bit of a leaisurely start to the morning and caught the 9am train out to Kutna Hora, about an hour away from Prague. The draw here is the bone church,, the Ossuary in Sedlic. Work began on this church back at the beginning of the 14th century, but was reconstructed in its present form in 1784. It is said to contain the bones of approximately 40,000 people - there were approximately 30,000 people buried here after the plague in 1318, and many more after ...

We were back by 1605, eschewing the climb for the view due to Arjan's knees and a lack of water.
Diary update and some culling of those from last night and today ...

El segundo dia de Praga fue diferente, desestructurado, aun mas caluroso, bastante resacoso, y con ganas de perdernos.
Caminamos por la orilla del rio, hasta llegar al famoso Charles Bridge, atiborrado de turistas, imposible. Es un puente construido en el siglo XIV, lleno de estatuas. Divino, pero es mas lindo verlo desde todos los angulos menos desde encima de el.
Dimos ...
And 'Y' was a transvestite
... looked like it was built for a population of 20,000 but inhabited by one about a tenth that size. Whenever we go to these small towns, I look around and think 'how can anyone live here?' And then I realize I lived in a town like that for about 15 years. It's possible. Boring, but possible. The three of us had a nice discussion about living in cities and towns and where we see ourselves going after Prague, and I know that I can never live ...
