Technical Difficulties

Welcome to the Czech Republic.

 

The great, the old, the moist and sticky Czech Republic.

 

So far the trip has been wonderful {aside from the 7 hour stopover in Heathrow.  No amount of duty-free shopping can stay one's interest for that long}.  The architecture in Prague is mind blowing.  Art nouveau, art deco, and rondo cubism are around every corner, and the only way to really describe the streets is serpentine.  If it wasn't for the map with our hotel clearly labeled I'm pretty sure that I'd be getting ready to nuzzle up under one of the many sculptures for a night's sleep.  We've seen countless cathedrals, statues, porno shops. and towers, and the decorated buildings are so ubiquitous that one quickly becomes accustomed {actually, so are the erotic shops . . .}

 

We've come into Hradec Kralove, and are staying in the dorms for the festival.  The food is very Czech {whipped cream wrapped in ham anyone [Ok, I can't make the question mark key work on this Czech kezboard].  Being a vegetarian isn't proving to be as difficult to maintain here as I had initially thought.  I just end up eating mainly pasta, potatoes, and fried cheese [perhaps not quite a success . . .]

 

Well, this keyboard is proving to be more difficult to navigate than I had hoped, so I shall sign off, and pick up where I left off next time.

 

Dobri den
