Prague III

Sunday, October 30th, 2005

I got up this morning and decided to get breakfast at a cafe. I hopped onto a tram I thought was headed for the Old Town and started talking to this girl who turns out to be going to the Florida State program in London in the same buildling where I take my classes. She’s […]

Cesky Krumlov

I took a day trip to Cesky Krumlov because it’s a UNESCO World Heritage Site and I have heard it’s really pretty.
