The Dancing Building




Just another one of those things you'll come across wandering around town. We were making our way from The Globe - a nice little English language bookstore and cafe over to the shopping mall at one of the metros, Novy Smichov at Andel, where they have a few movie theaters, bowling alley, and tons of storefronts - and that's what shops are here, they're what we would think of as just the front of a store - maybe 20 feet wide and if you're lucky 10 feet deep - for a lot of them think, like, Sunglasses Hut in the mall - and that would be a good size for a clothing store in the malls here. The dressing rooms at Macys are bigger than whole stores here. That's not all fair - some of the larger chaings have much larger stores, although nowhere near the size of what where' used to - the largest I've come across so far would be the size of the purse and watch section in the downtown Macys.

Anyway - these pics are of the Dancing Building, or Fred and Ginger - something like that. Yes - it's supposed to look like that - it's super cool in person!!
