The Royal Standard

June 18, 2008 · Leave a Comment

So I’m in the Royal Standard Pub (downstairs part of the hostel) and I’m watching the children come home from school. They’re all dressed in school uniforms, which I love. The day is ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL and I’m inside. Why because I’m tired. I helped out at the hostel this morning and I’m beat. There was so much to do today. The women who manage the pub are great. Vern is from the West Indies and Vyonne is from Jamaica. They are both strong women and I totally respect them. When I had a problem with someone, they both were there for me, which I totally appreciated it. So I will help out as much as I can whenever I can.

Martine, My Luxenberg Friend

June 13, 2008 · Leave a Comment

I met Martine on my 2nd night in Prague. She was there for some kind of job training, but only stayed the one night. The next day was her birthday and she would be spending 4-6 hours of it riding coach (bus) to Berlin. Even though she was there a short while, I liked her. You told me alittle bit about Luxenberg, which I had never heard of. (maybe typical American) Anyway, she was cool.

Just Hanging Out In London

June 13, 2008 · 3 Comments

Well as the title states, I’m still hanging out in London. I was suppose to go to Paris last Monday. I had been talking about for 2 weeks. I was also suppose to go to Barcelona, Monaco and Italy. It was going to be a 2 week trip before Wimbledon. So what happened? I don’t know. I just decided the Sunday before last that I didn’t want to go. So I’m just hanging out in London at my favorite hostel.

Star Ringing In Prague

June 3, 2008 · Leave a Comment

This is an astronomical clock. It shows all 365 days. There is a 2nd clock underneath this one. In the windows, you see the 12 apostles. They come out from 9am-9pm. Everyday on every hour the square is packed with visitors wanting to see the apostles. Its very beautiful.
