In this second post in a five-part series, I took a walk around Prague 1 while Emily was at an orientation. My route took me to the Jewish Quarter, the Charles Bridge, Lennon Wall, and of course, Old Town Square.

Praha
The first in a five-part series, we flew to Prague, Czech Republic to drop Emily off at university. On this trip, we visit some famous landmarks- as well as make trips to IKEA to set up her dorm.
The Tower of London
This final post in our Great British Adventure series focuses on the Tower of London. Since it was built in the 1100s, the Tower has served many purposes: armoury, treasury, Royal Mint, housing for the Crown Jewels, and very famously a prison. This was an interesting and educational experience for the family and definitely a must-do on any London itinerary. Cheers!
Fun, Fabulous, and Free London Museums
London is famous for having some amazing museums with extensive collections. During out stay, we visited two spectacular public museums with extensive collections documenting millennia of natural and human history. A science lover, I enjoyed learning at the Natural History Museum. To learn more about the history and ancient civilizations the kids were studying in school, we visited the British Museum. Both are public museums that are free admission.
Our Great British Transportation Adventure
This post is a transition from our time in Hampshire and surrounding counties to our trip into London for the second part of our travels. We rented a car for our first six days of travel, which was an adventure in itself, and then utilized London's famed public transportation network to get around the city. The kids especially loved our trips on the London Underground.
