Prague Part 2: Bone Ossuary and Wandering Around

Our first trip was outside Prague, to a famous bone chapel called the Sedlec Ossuary--it was a Roman Catholic chapel made of like eight million bones. Or actually, it's the skeletons of something like 40,000 people, so it's more like 8.5 million. HA. YOU THOUGHT I WAS EXAGGERATING. I got you good.

Here's a sign:

Here's another sign. It gives information about ticket combos for the ossuary and some other attractions nearby. Numbers 2-4 have words in their boxes on the bottom, that maybe describe the attraction type, like church, cemetery, whatever. Number 1? Skull.

Here are some shots of the inside of the ground floor.

There were several just piles o' bones.

This is back outside again, on the nice sidewalk of death.

Then we realized there was the actual not-bone chapel up some outside stairs. It had some oddly suggestive paintings.

Then we left and took a walk to find this dumpling place for lunch. Here is a column-tower thingy that I forgot the name of.

Here's a local map built into the sidewalk. That's totally suite.

Then we found this big cylinder with a door with a little window. But there wasn't really anything inside.

Prague is a city that has a lot of architecture and statues going on. Like everything you see is some sort of intricate carving of either art or design, or both mebbe.

Later, it became night. We took some photos of pretty night things.

 This sculpture series is a monument to the victims of communism. As you go up the steps, the figure is less and less fully human, until it's like like a foot or something at the top.

Well, that was kind of a drag to end on. Suckers.

By the way, beer is wicked cheap in Prague, but I hate beer, so I mostly had expensive gin and tonics.
