As we said goodbye to Brno and hit the road to Prague, we reflected on a day packed with discovery and fun. Brno had impressed us with its castles and Christmas lights, but it was our visit to the VIDA! Science Centre that wrapped it up.

We weren’t sure what to expect from VIDA!, but it turned out to be a perfect way to spend the afternoon. Dotty was completely absorbed by the water table, playing with lock gates playing with the flow of water. Given her condition hands-on activities bring out her best smile, and this one really delivered.

Georgia, always curious, spent her time exploring exhibits on renewable energy and how wind power works. Watching her excitement as she pieced together how these things connect to everyday life was a bit of a proud parent moment for us. Ali and I even got stuck into a few of the activities ourselves (Ali sillily went in to a spinning machine and had to leave, she nearly passed out from labyrinthitis) even so there’s something about playing with science that makes you forget you’re supposed to be the grown up.

VIDA! Seems to sneak in education without making it feel like a lecture. We left feeling like we’d all learned something new while having fun at the same time.

Onward to Prague

The drive to Prague wasn’t long, and as we arrived, the city greeted us with its lively energy and busy roads. We’re staying just outside the centre, so it’s a short tram ride into the heart of the action. The kids are already looking forward to exploring tomorrow Georgia is determined to see Prague Castle, while Dotty will just be excited on the tram ride itself (it’s the little things that make her day).

For now, though, we’re settling in and getting ready for another full day of adventures. Brno gave us plenty of memorable moments, and we’re excited to see what Prague has in store.

Traveling as a family isn’t always smooth sailing, but it’s moments like today that make it all worthwhile.
