First School Day

We made it safe and sound at the Prague airport and arrived at our dorm an hour later. Its a nice place. 6 story building with a garden in the back. The students going to school here are having finals for the next 2 weeks so our group is a little dispersed and spread out among the floors. When the students finish their semester everyone in our group will be moved onto 2 floors.
I haven't been able to load any pictures up yet, just google Prague and you'll see how beautiful and exciting this city is. I've been exploring a lot with a ton of different groups. There aren't any clicks of people here which is nice. I'm comfortable speaking and spending time with anyone from the class.
We have class 3 hours a day and spend the rest of the time (so far) learning about the city. The only complaint that I have about the place is that you have to buy water everywhere you eat (no tap) and it's 2x as expensive as beer. My feet are feeling great thanks to the Keens that my parents bought me. Last night I bought some buttermilk by accident instead of regular milk and had a little surprise this morning when I started eating my granola. I'm going to take a siesta in a minute. I'll get the pictures up as soon as I can. Love and miss you all.

Want me to send you your water filter?

Too bad about the water, but I'm glad all is well over there. Have you gotten a chance to talk to any of the students there? The Czech kids? They might be able to give you some insider tips on where to go...maybe someplace with cheaper water ;).

Love,

So drink beer instead! That'll go well with your "milk."
