Back in Prague and we have begun our actual studies at Charles University.

Prague is beautiful and strange and sad and frustrating at various times, and sometimes all at the same time! Here are some pictures I took of this fabulous city. Click on the small image to see the full sized picture.

Today I was trying to take Jen to this wall that Daniel and I had seen which was covered with paintings of and messages for/about/in the spirit of John Lennon. We couldn’t find it and we were about to give up (I was about to give up, she had absolutely no idea where it was anyway) when we found it completely by accident! It was an amazing moment and the wall is quite impressive. I have to remember to take a picture of it before I go. (I never did get around to that!)
