Day 20--Karlovy Vary

Today we took a day trip out to Karlovy Vary (Karlsbad)--the spa town where the Queen Latifah movie Last Holiday was filmed.  Ever since I saw the movie I have been intrigued by the town.  We had two locals on the trip with us--a cab driver from Prague and the hotel manager who was born in Karlovy Vary and going home for the weekend.

When we got there, the hotel manager had arranged a horse and carriage ride for us from her father.  It was really fun!

The town was very charming.  We ate lunch at a restaurant frequented by stars at the yearly Karlovy Vary Film festival and got to see the Grand Hotel Pupp where Last Holiday was filmed.

We went up on a funicular and got a view of the whole city.

We ended the day with dinner across the street from our hotel back in Prague.
