More from Prague

I'm not sure if this will work (I'm still learning how to put videos on the blog, but if you have sound you should be able to hear the birds going crazy. If not, it will just look like a really bad silent movie of some leaves. The blackbird is my favorite- he's the one that sounds like he's telling a story.
Otherwise, here's some standard pretty pictures of the gardens just a short walk from our hotel room. They're lovely and if you walk for long enough you get away from most of the tourists (this city is swarming with them! I know it's a bit hypocritical of me to complain, but I'm going to anyway) and there's birds and small creatures that scurry around in the undergrowth. I'm hoping for something cute like a hedgehog or a shrew, and I don't want to hear any comments about rats.
We have a few more days here and I'm up for doing some more wandering around in the leafiness. I think there's a maze in there somewhere, but I haven't been able to find it yet. Possibly the whole garden is the maze and I\ve missed the big picture. There are paths zig zagging everywhere. Maybe I can solve the puzzle tomorrow, or at least see the hedgehogs.
