Prague is called the "City of a thousand spires" because there are so many churches there. We were able to go inside most of them and see how pretty they are inside. I thought it was ironic though because on a tour we took we were told that the majority of the country is actually Atheist. Our tour guide told us that 60% of the country proclaim themselves as Atheist. Of the 40% that do believe in God, 90% of them are Catholic.
Some of the Churches are on a hilltop that we walked straight up to the top, it felt like 3 miles to me, but I am sure it wasn't even close to that. When we got to the top we realized that there was a tram that could have taken us to the top! It was an incredible view when we got there though.
When we got to the top, one of the churches had a spire that you could hike to the top, my pregnant body wasn't feeling up to the task, but Kevin wanted to do the hike, and he took my picture at the bottom when he reached the top.
One day we drove across the border of Poland to say that we had been to Poland. We took pictures at the signs.
