Czech Republic Summer 2008: #6 Ticket to Ride
http://czechsummer.blogspot.com/2008/09/6-ticket-to-ride.html
Czech Republic Summer 2008. Friday, September 26, 2008. 6 Ticket to Ride. I didn’t, however, talk loudly to my traveling companions or use my cell phone, or act like I was being offered some black market jewelry for sale when the tram inspector flashed his badge. I had to draw the line somewhere. Riding public transport is a big thrill for me. What can I say? I like to take these train rides this with my husband and son sitting in the high-backed brown vinyl covered seat across from me, so I can.

Czech Republic Summer 2008: #7 Next Time
http://czechsummer.blogspot.com/2008/09/7-next-time.html
Czech Republic Summer 2008. Friday, September 26, 2008. My husband asked me if I thought there would ever have been a revolution if the Communists had allowed more color. Of course, he was partly joking, his comment being more about the increasing colorful improvements we’ve noticed this trip than about world politics.

Czech Republic Summer 2008: #3 Window Ornament
http://czechsummer.blogspot.com/2008/09/3-window-ornament.html
Czech Republic Summer 2008. Friday, September 26, 2008. I like my life here as a window ornament. I hang on the windowsill or sit in it to watch our street every chance I get. The street is three lanes wide, with two sets of tram rails like embedded train tracks and two electrical lines which run above the trams. The wide, mostly uncobbled sidewalks are lined with shops, pubs, and restaurants. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Culture Shock at Home. 1 Where is Home. 2 Behind the Curtain.
