Prague, Episode 3

We went to Josefov quarter today. It was a somber walk through the Maisel Synagogue, the Pinkas Synagogue, the Old Jewish Cemetery and the Spanish Synagogue. I was particularly saddened when I learned that of 10,000 children under the age of 15 that were sent to Terezin only 242 survived. Drawings by these children were on display and just brought home their cruel fate. There were stories on how the adults tried to make the children lives "normal" by having school lessons - all done under secrecy.

It was another late night for us. We dined at this great Italian restaurant followed by a stop at a jazz club where Clinton played. They had tons of pictures of him playing the sax plastered around the place. Then we joined the conference people at a club where Colin discovered the fossball table upstairs. I was having flashback from college: me watching him play in a smoke filled, beer smelling bar. Now those were the days. Finally begged off at 2AM. Here I am calling the girls on the way to the hotel.
