Back from a weekend in Prague with my wife and my parents, celebrating my mom's 60th birthday. Let me tell you, that city has some fantastic and gorgeous architecture. All the buildings are full of details, handmade carvings and paintings. There's a lot of public art and you can't throw a stone in any direction without hitting something worth looking at.

So since I'm back from my travels, here's a choo-choo.

Here's the most random thing I saw, yellow penguins on parade at the river side. What are your most random art discoveries?

Welcome back, you flew on an airplane with a train inside? There must be more convenient ways to travel :p (I'm kidding)

I think Prague would be a very interesting city to see, but there are still so many other cities to visit on my wishlist :D

The weirdest art thing that comes to my mind would probably be a really large chair I saw in a city once.

Like a normal chair, only big? How big? =)

A (very basic) chair made completely out of wood, it was around 20 meters or so tall. I found a picture:

No, I think he was saying that he flew with an airplane that had a train in it. Which begs to ask the question- how did he fly?

Ah you're absolutely right, he said he flew the plane. Well the real question is what is he going to do with that train though? And did he steal or buy it? So many questions!

I had to look it up after seeing it. It's a bolt of lightning hitting a key, representing the story around Ben Franklin's "discovery" of electricity

That story isn't even true, is it? :) But I can sort of see it, but it looks a bit unfinished with the top open like that. :P

Probably not true, just a nice story I guess ... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kite_experiment#Modern_controversy

I'm fond of the faceless crawling babies that are all over the Zizkov TV tower in the middle of Prague.

Is that real? That looks so much like a 3D model. :O Looks awesome.

We lived at a hotel close to Mûstek and mostly walked in and around old town. I must have missed it. :)

Oh yeah they're real. I haven't seen the tower in some time but they should still be there, at least the wikipedia page on the tower says so.

I meant more the tower looks like a 3D model rather than the babies ^^

this tower is very hard to overlook... but I totally get it .. for most visitors from west Prague is a place where you can be non-stop stoned for cheap.)
btw\ it's biggest city dominant and you can see it pretty much from almost every place around city
