Hubs and I just returned from a trip to Prague, where we visited
Prague Castle and
Saint Vitus Cathedral.
Construction on the cathedral began in 1344 and it boasts a giant clock
tower whose main spire reaches a height of 317 feet. We purchased
tickets to climb the tower without really thinking about what we were
getting into -- which was 287 steps up a spiral staircase with steps
about three feet wide.
We thought. We were going. To die.

We finally reached the ground
again, dizzy and trying to catch our breath, and looked back up at the
tower. I was still in awe of the history and architecture around us and
was feeling pretty blissful about the experience. Until...
Hubs: Where did we climb to?
Me: Those big openings at the top.
Hubs: Well, that was dumb.
