My (mystery) elevator

Photo of a control panel in an elevator, Prague
After seeing and reading about this elevator in Rome I thought I should post mine, too. It works exactly the same as in Rome (it's perfectly written in the link). Only mine is a bit bigger, almost 100cm x 100cm. There's just one weird thing, though. It takes 22 seconds to get from 0 to 6. But when you call the elevator it takes more than 30 seconds for it to arrive. Where it spends those 8 seconds? I don't know.

Christmas decorations and movie recommendations

Christmas decoration at Lucerna passage in Prague downtown
I know it's late. Christmas decorations in Lucerna passage. And you've probably seen it here already :)

For those in Prague: There is a series of interesting films and documentaries in Prague Municipal Library at the end of January. I'm going to see Annie Leibovitz movie (once again) on January 22, and try to catch a few more. Wish they could start at least an hour later. All info is at their website. And if you prefer Aero Cinema, they have Annie the same day only an hour earlier.

Stairs under Hlavkuv bridge


I put this place near Vltavska metro station in my top ten list of places in Prague I would rather not be visiting at night.

+ one thing I'd like to share. Do you know Annie Leibovitz? I bet lot of you do. There's an interesting interview with her (the link goes to my favorite blog of Chase Jarvis in case you'd ask). Also, Annie Leibovitz: Life Through a Lens is a great movie. I'm buying a DVD as Christmas gift for myself :)

Hidden garden with sculptures


And it's hidden on Libensky island. With ten or more of them on this little place where nobody goes to. I still wonder why they are here. It took me nine years to look over that wall and find them. Big mystery for me.

What else is Libensky island known for? They sell a lot of second-hand cars and second-hand furniture here. I fell in love with a table and sooo comfy chairs... that cost more than you (or I at least) can imagine.

I guess there wasn't a TV Tower post for a while :)
Taken about two weeks ago.

... and there's a lot of sun, too

Sun in Prague in December
This one is from Friday morning. Almost idyllic weather. Maybe to much idyllic for December. Did I mention that we wait for the snow?

Christmas in Prague

Christmas in Prague
Just want to let you know that Prague is ready for Christmas and absolutely crowded during the day (in spite of this 2 or 3 am photo).

Now we wait only for the snow :)
