Ahoj!
Today was our first full day in Prague. We started off our morning my getting a tour of the city with our USAC host, Jan. We started off by going across the river to the Narodni Muzeum, the country's premier museum. We continued down Saint Wencealas square, who is the patron saint of the Czech Republic, into the old town square.
We viewed the astronomical clock. We viewed the opera house that Mozart performed his Le Nozze di Figaro at. We then went and tours some of Charles University's campus, where we will be having some of our classes. Finally, we stopped at the church containing the Infant Jesus of Prague.

After the walking tour we went to a cafe for Slavia for lunch with varied meals. We then took the tram over to the Holešovice market to get our tickets for the 2023 Prague Quadrennial. The Bohemian Art studio class took time to look around the Exhibitions of countries, including that of Australia, Romania, and Greece.
