Amy is standing in front of our hotel in Prague’s Malá Strana, which at one point was known as the “new town,” though eventually that name moved across the river. That’s the Charles Bridge behind her, built in 1357. The hotel door that she’s reaching out and touching is set in a wall that was remodeled in the mid 1,400’s, and was before that part of an archbishop’s palace.
