I love Prague and I also love October. I’ve never experienced the two together. Thank you for sharing the experience. How deeply gratifying.

Also, I’m a grown-assed man, and I think Anne Shirley is the greatest child character of “classic” literature. 😘

Breathtaking! October is also my favorite month, for many of the same reasons. You've inspired me to now put this gorgeous local on our travel plans. Thank you

Beautiful! I was in Prague in early autumn years ago and it was stunning. But the Czech countryside and small towns really took my breath away!

Which towns did you visit? I was born there and still miss it in many ways. Especially the food, and especially the pastries....

We only had four weeks and we like to stay put in one place, so we only took one day trip outside of Prague. And the name escapes me now!

Ahoj Michale :)

Praha is truly one of Europe's most beautiful cities... yes I'm biased but then so is everyone else who's ever been!

This has made me completely homesick. Working now on an essay telling the story of our emigration from my country, which makes it doubly hard. Better stop commenting before the tears smear your photos ...

It is and not only the center part. It's just a fantastic place. And sorry to make you cry!

If your post made me homesick, imagine what this election just did

Beautiful pictures from one of our favorite cities. We were there in the snow in Christmas 2022. I can assure you that even though snow is not my favorite thing, it was amazing then too.

Jealous! Would love to see it in the snow!

If you can, do. It was my second journey there but the best by far. It looked like a Christmas version of a European city courtesy of Walt Disney.

Beautiful, Michael! Autumn is gorgeous in many places, but I hope you get to see it in Japan one day. Nature really knows what it's doing there in the sense of color composition.

Man, Japan in fall is such a dream! Alas, we're going there next spring, so that dream will have to wait a bit.

Well, cherry blossoms and other spring flowers are terrible of course… so glad you guys are going there!
