Here are a few interesting things I've noticed during my time here:
- The "American pizza" at a nearby restaurant includes toppings such as peas and cream cheese.
- People here sometimes leave the windows open for "fresh air" even when the temperature is below freezing.
- The walls at the school are so thin that I was woken up by the guy next door talking on the phone.
- The dining hall's quesadillas consisted of not only cheese, chicken, and peppers, but also green beans.
- When I open a web page like Google here, it comes up in Czech.
- The Lord's Supper (Eucharist) is held in high regard here. I've participated in it several times, including one meaningful experience at a professor's home.
- The dining hall here serves lots of starchy cafeteria foods, but not much dessert. I may have to go out and buy some cookies!
How about a trip to the Cheesecake Factory when you return...my treat!
Funny -- my brother's family just arrived in Birmingham from Prague! They're stateside for a couple of weeks for their son's baptism. I am seeing my nephew for the very first time (other than pictures from afar) tomorrow night! I'm also going to show my sister-in-law your blog -- I think she'll love it.
Fun on both counts! :)
