Spring Break–Take Two
We went for a walk into town yesterday. It was so pretty! The trees are budding, the air feels fresh, and the temperatures are in the 50s. Okay! We’re going to give this Spring Break thing another go. Mr. DJ has to work in Holland next week, so we’ll leave bright and early tomorrow morning [...]
Dare we plan another trip?
So I have joined the land of the living as of today. Roxi is working hard on her castle project and hopes to have it all the way done by Thursday. We’re thinking about going to Holland with Mr. DJ for next week but leaving this Friday or Saturday so we can spend the weekend [...]
We cancelled our trip
Just in case you were picturing us guzzling large quantities of beer in Munich’s Hofbräuhaus, you should know… we cancelled our trip. Roxi had a fever Friday night and Saturday morning so at the very last minute we decided to cut our losses and cancel our vacation. It was a good thing, too, because by [...]
Prague Farewell: Petřín Hill
Our last day from our trip to Prague in October. If you’ve missed the rest of the posts, you can check out the Prague link on the sidebar to the right. One day I’ll finish categorizing the rest of my posts from last year! After a delicious late lunch in the Little Quarter, we wanted [...]
Driving Test: One down, one to go
I PASSED the theory part of my driving test today! I was so nervous. Silly, I know, but it’s been quite a while since I had to take a test like that–or had to take any test, really. I made a 50/50 on the multiple choice part (maybe I over-studied since passing is 43/50) and [...]
Prague: Church of St. Nicholas and a Beer Hall
Right, so I’m almost done with our October trip to Prague. Just one more post after this… The Church of St. Nicholas is located in Prague’s Little Quarter not far from our hotel. That’s it on the right. The green dome is the same one we saw in the second photo from my St. Vitus [...]
Prague: the Old Royal Palace
More from our trip to Prague last October… We visited the Old Royal Palace after seeing St. Vitus Cathedral. We actually weren’t planning to do more sightseeing that day because Mr. DJ still was feeling under the weather, but it didn’t feel right not to see the Old Palace. And just in case it’s confusing [...]
Prague: St. Vitus Cathedral
Still trying to catch up on our Prague trip from October. Today, we’re visiting St. Vitus Cathedral, which is located within the Prague Castle complex. It was a cold and rainy day, but that didn’t stop us from hiking a short distance from our hotel up the hill to the castle complex. . Here’s the [...]
Speaking of Prague…
Fabulous front doors at the Appia Residence (our hotel) in Prague. October 2007. Roxi has a friend coming in today from Prague. She’s American but used to go to school here in England and now lives in Prague. Cool, huh? Anyway, there’s a big dance at school tonight, and Roxi’s spending the night at a [...]
