Sketching a vacation, or vacation to sketch?

I haven't added any pictures lately.  Life has gotten in the way, and obligations to be filled before leaving for vacation  (I really hesitate calling it a "vacation" since I'm retired and don't work anymore. Back in the day,  a vacation from work really was a VACATION!  There should be a different word used by retirees who do nothing in particular to spend lots of money to go somewhere else to do nothing in particular.  
Any suggestions?)

I digress.  Anyway, I've gotten accustomed to carrying a sketch book to capture a scene, a mood, some historical references, something that will help me illustrate the moment that this was experienced.  I just finished a drawing of Bethlehem Chapel in Old Town Prague which we visited last summer. I'm adding in the "recent" category my finished drawing, and also a very rough quick sketch made during the visit.  

'Thought you'd like to see a "before" and "after" sketch of the same scene.   Also, we'll be gone and out of touch for about a month.  Expect more sketches following our return.
