Here’s a potpourri of architecture, art, and street scenes from today’s walks to the National Gallery and along the Charles River:

1. The Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers Dancing Building by Frank Gehry
2. Optional transportation across the Charles River
3. Elegant Witches’ Caps

Architectural Models by Loos and others (for the architects in the room)

Portraits by Rousseau, Matisse, and Picasso; Sculpture by Degas and Rodin

A moving tribute to a 22-year old artist

1. En Plein Air
2. Czech Donut Making

3. Witches and Goblins and Ghosts–Oh My! are everywhere in Prague (we just missed April 30, when everyone dresses up as a witch throughout the city)
4. Second Effigy in Two Days–a whimsical or warped obsession?

I’ll be on the road to Weimar tomorrow, so next post may be delayed. See you soon!
