After our long and miserable night train, our wonderful hotel let us check in extra early. We found out that the local LDS chapel was nearby and decided to get ready and go. It is so wonderful to be halfway across the world, walk into a foreign building and feel like family. The chapel was packed without one open seat. Luckily they had an English translation room. Apparently the LDS church is growing fast in the Czech Republic and will soon be opening another branch.
The fall of communism in the Czech Republic led to thriving entrepreneurialship and great customer service. The people were so sweet and willing to help us confused tourists out wherever we went. I will always remember the sweet manager of our hotel and the bellman helping us with every need and walking us outside to wave goodbye and send best wishes.
We enjoyed the Castle Quarter, Jewish Quarter, Old Town, and New Town. We felt very comfortable, safe, and entertained in this city rich in history and culture.
