This and that...

So today included a variety of activities, from navigating the subway system from our hotel the to conference hotel, to trying to find a place for lunch which is not as easy as it seems. We also took a 3 hour walking tour of District 1 of Praha...which includes the Prague Castle (St. Vitus Cathedral, multiple courtyards, 2 palaces), the St. Charles Bridge, Old Town & New Town Halls, and Wenceslas Square. We also walked towards the National Museum, but it was pretty foggy and we were headed to the Metro station and back to our hotel.

Here's a few pictures we want to share with you!

This first one is of the "Creation" window from inside St. Vitus Cathedral.



I know this is out of order, but does anyone know what is wrong with this picture? We took it outside of the Conference Hotel.




Here's Christy standing outside of St. Vitus Cathedral.


Here are the parrots Andy saw on the webcam!



And last but not least, the promised picture of the toilet. Notice the knob on the top? You pull that up to flush. Strange!

Glad to see that you guys are having a great time. JR says he would eat the meatloaf in Germany, but he eats anything if he's hungry enough.

So, sounds like you've already had a busy time in Europe. I'm loving the blogs! I go on call again tomorrow, so we'll see if I end up on your MUC-ORD flight. That would just be too crazy. Eat a dumpling for me-I'm so jealous!

Actually I'm Austin's girlfriend, we're both going to Germany and central Europe in January and he told me I should check out your blog so we know what we're in for! Hope that's alright!
