We
are obviously museum junkies and always visit them when we can. We have also had
lunch in museums as some have nice places to eat. My favorites include the
Victoria and Albert in London and the cafe in the Musee d' Orsay in Paris. (The
one in the basement of the Louve only in an emergency.) This photo is from the
museum in Prague. Basically, it is a good soup and bottles of soda. I have no
idea what the soda was, but it was refreshing. Now to the trolley. They have an excellent system in Prague. We took the
trolley (which is a sleek and comfortable streetcar) several times and on the
way to see the modern art we had a nice experience. In our area, we have BART.
It is Bay Area Rapid Transit. There are special seats for the old or disabled,
but they are often filled with young active people on their phones. (If they
don't look up to see you with your cane, you do not exist.) The disabled get
to stand when there is a crowd. In Prague, it seems, the moment an elderly or handicapped person board the
trolley, people are already on their feet indicating they are going to stand.
They smile and act like you are important – because you are.
