Glue Animals!

It seems that the more I have to write about the less I feel like doing it because it just seems like it can't be done right...there's no way I can fully explain how awesome the last few days have been (at least not without writing WAY too much) and yet, I have to try. So...
Olomouc was excellent. Even though they had to do Czech lessons everyday for longer than I think I could stand to listen to someone talk in English, we had so much fun. Christy was kind enough to let me stay with her and eat her food and get to know her which was a blessing to me. On Tues. night we played taboo...my title is what Graham thinks of when he can't say the word "horses" =) it was hilarious...and now they all know that i can wiggle my ears and the mitch can wiggle his adam's apple and that christy and sarah beall can flip their tongues (you're not the only one Blair!) Wednesday we went to a park/wilderness area just outside of Olomouc and threw the frisbee around and had a great time in the beautiful weather...it was just gorgeous and warm for the past few days. I took the train that afternoon to Prague and I really wish I could've stayed longer!
Prague...oh Prague *sigh* I am so in love with that city. It is just breathtaking in so many ways. If you have never been there, I'm sorry, but I just can't do justice to it with feeble words. I walked around just absorbing and remembering and then went to the church where they have a devo on Wed nights. It was so good to see Vera and Helena and then Karel came and Matus. It is an odd feeling to have such a cameraderie with people you don't know that well and yet they are your family because you are Christians. Brothers and sisters indeed. Petr, who is my age, came late after he got off work and he and I went for coffee and had a great talk about all kinds of things. For those of you who want to know more about how he's doing, email me.
Yesterday I spent strolling around in blissful aimlessness and ate at Bohemia Bagel (yes, i know! it was delicious!) I did see an SUV pulling a 4wheeler in downtown Prague and I thought that was pretty funny...then I caught the 230 train back to Leipzig.
On the way back the passport control guy noticed that I had 2 russian visas in my passport and started to speak to me in Russian...i had to laugh and then tell him that i only spoke a very little bit of russian, sorry. He thought that was hilarious.
I ate dinner last night with the Perrys and Abigail and Tim who are here visiting. This morning we all went to Colditz, this castle that was a POW prison during WWII. There have been numerous books written about it because of all the escape attemts, both successful and not, that were made from it and the famous prisoners that were kept there. We had a great time there.
Whew, so I'm caught up now and sorry if it isn't as detailed as it probably should be, I can only type for so long before I just get tired of it =)
Love ya'll,
