Aha, Praha!
Dobrý den!
This past weekend my study abroad group and I went to Prague, capital city of the Czech Republic. You might not have any idea of what is in Prague, but it is actually a very large city. We toured the historical part- many theaters and shops, the Charles Bridge, and a castle.
The Charles Bridge was pretty cool- especially at night. It has statues of saints along it, and is pretty long. Prague has more of an Eastern Europe and Russian flavor to its culture.
On Saturday I visited the Prague Botanical Gardens- Botanik Zehrada. They had a long greenhouse with plants from different areas of the world. It was nice to be back in the horticulture world!
I also went shopping in Prague- the Czech Republic mines Garnets, so they had beautiful jewelry. And, this was the first time on the trip that I had to change money. The Euro has definitely simplified travelling through Europe.
Well, not too much else going on. I'm still riding my bike, rain or shine. Tonight I have Taerobics- I enjoy chatting with the girls there. Salzburg is starting to decorate for Christmas, and I'm excited! Hope y'all are doing wonderful!
Love,
Liz

Great Blog! What an experience! I think you have a future on the travel channel. I didn't realize that you would have the opportunity to visit so many different countries. I'm sure that you've brought a bit of the Aggie culture to Europe and make us all very proud. We're anxious to get you back and look forward to seeing all of your photos. Take care- Sharon

Hey Liz!
I love your blog. It's wonderful to be able to see all the places you've visited; it's like I'm there with you. I didn't realize you'd be doing so much traveling, but it's great to see that you're getting all you can out of your European experience. I can't wait till you get back; in the meantime, I'm praying for you!
Love,
Noreen
