Presidents, Giraffes, Communism and Men with Jacked Up Teeth

Easter Monday is a national holiday in the Czech Republic...a country that is 75% athiest. I don't get it but I'll accept it. I needed a long weekend! Been a bit down in the dumps here lately for no good reason. Perhaps the newness of living in a foreign country has worn off and now instead of being excited by all the little differences, I find myself becoming a bit annoyed. And there is the fact that my lifestyle is pretty much completely different than it was 4 months ago. Three roommates, eratic work schedule, no Chick Fil-A, no option of picking up the phone and talking to my best friends every day and very little money. But hey, this is what I signed up for! I'm sure I'll snap out of it soon and be back on Team Prague in no time. The lovely Spring weather is definitely a mood booster and Pam and Marshall will be here in a few weeks for a birthday visit....woohoo!

Here are some pics of what I've been up to lately - Weekend in Berlin (yes, that's me climbing over the Berlin Wall. classic.), Obama in Prague, Czech National Hockey Playoffs (Go Slavia!) and the Prague Zoo. I've tried for 20 minutes to get these pictures in nice, orderly rows but it isn't working! ahhhhhhhhhh...
