Astronomical Clock, Prague

Came across this the other day, thought it might be of interest. There are a few different sites and videos on the subject.

It's a most interesting clock.

We visited Prague back in in 2007 - the only place in Europe where few seemed to like my wife and me, with constant examples of rudeness. It was as if every morning people woke up and sucked on lemons. I felt like saying to them - "The Commies have left - you can ease up now".

Fortunately, a friend from a local astronomy club had moved back there, and we caught up with him, and he gave us a tour of all the astronomical places of interest in Prague for about four hours.

I'll never be sure if it was because we were with him, or just that people associated with astronomy are nicer people, but for those four hours everyone we came across was smiling and very nice - a most pleasant change.
Regards,
Renato
