More from Pruhonice
Ahoj again! As you can see from the pictures, we've been having some fantastic weather in Prague. Saturday I went rock climbing with some friends from church. I haven't been climbing in probably two years. I left feeling a great sense of accomplishment (I got a lot higher than I expected!) but my muscles were absolutely destroyed for the next two days. Sunday I took Bode to Pruhonice park, which I know I keep talking about, but it really is just like this surreal fairytale land...waterfalls and streams everywhere, just beautiful.
Life at the office hasn't changed much. We still find ways to entertain ourselves amidst the stress.
For example, this conversation occured on Tuesday:
Milan: "I have a very important question. I was talking with my daughter, we were watching some program, and we want to know what frogs say in English."
Jessica: "um, you mean like, ribbit?"
Milan: "well, what sound do they have. In czech they say kvaa-kvaa."
Jessica: "..um....ribbit..."
Milan: "what?"
Jessica: "...Ribbit..."
Milan: "what?"
Jessica: "RIBBIT!!!!"
This is the point where every single person in that office poked their head up over their cubicle to see what that strange noise was....and so the tone was set for the rest of the day.
I needed help with a shipment today and had to contact a Hungarian named Zsolt. That has got to be the most intimidating name I have ever heard. Really, do you not just picture a bolt of lightning zapping you and frying away any last bits of self-assurance? We'll see how this one goes..
Hmm I think that's all I've got for now. I've just about finished the last of the Honey Nut Cheerios and Bode needs to go out. Will try and write something better this weekend!
