Hey all, we have been in Prague for almost 2 days now. I am in love with this city. I am already eying some real estate on the river for my future home- obviously- a nice yellow or blue house on the water will do just fine. Every building you see here is gorgeous, old, and colorful. The
squares (especially the old town square) are just exquisite. There is nothing more to say about that.
Today, Loren and I went to the Kafka museum which was basically all about how tortured Kafka was and was a pretty torturous experience itself, with depressing weird music and crows calling out of the speakers like they were going to eat you. Every town has a dark side, I guess. Kafka definitely is the dark side of prague. Then we went to this crazy church- St. Nicholas Church and felt the presence of G-d because it was the craziest, biggest church I have been in since yesterday when we were at the gigantic Cathedral at Prague Castle. Then, we went to the Vlatava river (the main river) and rented a paddle boat for an hour. I paddled for most of the time and lolo took pictures and complained a little because it was so sunny. I tried to row him into the shade. He is picky. We just had ice creams and now are in an Internet cafe.
I have been taking lots of pictures and will add some when I remember to get all of my stuff together. Tomorrow, we are off to telc, a small town in the south. We are staying in a beautiful old, blue hotel right on the cutest town square i have ever seen!

Lots of love to all,
KK
