Pictures from Prague and Dresdin, Germany:
Beautiful Prague at Night
It's official, two weeks from tomorrow I come home, yeah!!!
And it is looking like these last two weeks are going to be pretty fricken crazy. I was just asked to take on another teacher's classes. It is actually a good friend of mine who is going on maternity leave and the principle somehow neglected to find a replacement so starting tomorrow whenever I am not teaching drama, I will be teaching elementary school EAL. I am predicting it will be quite stressful but I am trying to focus on all the extra money I will be able to bring home with me :)
In other news life in Lux is pretty great. I have gone on two trips since my last posting, one to Prague with EJ and Marcus and one to Champagne with four other teachers from the International School. Both were wonderful, in very different ways (see above pictures)
Prague was an amazing city, just as beautiful as I was expecting and very different from any other city I have been to in Europe. I learned that how to say hello in check, "Ahoy" so apparently the first pirates must have been from Prague :) One really funny thing that happened in Prague was that we left the window open in our hotel room when we went out exploring for the day and when we came back my back which was right under the ceiling window was SOAKED, including all of my clothes!!! It was hilarious, and definitely taught me the importance of flexibility while traveling. I mean what else could I do but laugh?!?
Champagne was so beautiful and I learned sooooo much about the process of making champagne, I am basically an expert. Had a few really delicious french meals, traveled to three champagne caves, and took a tour through a few old villages and vineyards, amazing! I will post my champagne pictures soon, I promise. There's just not enough time in the day.
Thats all for now, hope all is well back home, cant wait to be back in America so soon!
