Some pictures from the Jewish Quarter: The most amazing experience on this day was touring one of the synagogues with a woman who was in her 80's. She grew up in the area and survived the Nazi occupation. Her explanations and stories came straight from the heart and it was truly moving.
A cemetary behind one of the synagogues. People were buried on top of each other.
Ask any person from Czech Rep. and they will proudly remind the Americans that "Budweiser" originated in Czech. There, it's known as Budvar. It's probably not the best example of Czech beer, but much better than the American version.
