A bit lengthier discussion of Prague and Munich...

Overall, our experience in Prague was positive. The day after arrival in Prague we did a free guided tour of the city (strangely enough, our guide had lived in Mason City, IA for a couple of years!) We appreciated the city much better during and after the city, as our first impression of Prague left some room for improvement. We visited the castle in Prague which looked over the city.

Later in the afternoon, we hit up some tourist shops and looked at souvenirs and that sort of thing. In the evening, we went to an excellent restaurant (high class joint, but within our budgets because the cost of living in Prague is super-low!) I had the best salmon that I've ever had, and I think I've had some pretty good ones before! The others also enjoyed their meals.

Today in Munich we attended Mass. We were targeting an 11 a.m. service which was supposed to be in English but turned out to be Vietnamese, so we went to a 2 p.m. service instead...English, but intended for the Nigerian community in Munich. It was a very interesting experience to say the least! There were lots and lots of songs, chants, yelling, dancing, and 'Amens'!!! They were perhaps the most welcoming group of people I've ever met, as during the sign of peace I think I shook hands with, high fived, or hugged everz purpose in the entire congregation!!!

Anyway, we are heading to Rome in an hour!!!
