Dcera v Praze...

A daughter is a day brightener and a heart warmer. ~Author Unknown

My daughter arrived in Prague on Wednesday afternoon right on time, safe and sound, walking out of passport control in Terminal 1 with a smile and looking great. We have been walking ever since; trying to show her some of the highlights of this City called Prague.

On Wednesday afternoon: Václavské náměstí, Karlův Most and Kampa, along with a “real” Czech dinner in old town, albeit a bit pricey. Yesterday: Na Příkopě, Presto, jiřího z poděbrad, náměstí Míru, Hradčany, Ujezd, střelecky ostrov, and various cafes throughout the day. Today, a slower day of Vyšehrad, poking around Na Příkopě shopping per her wishes, and who knows what else, ultimately ending up at the beer garten of Riegrovy sady to meet friends this evening.

She is a “sight for sore eyes” and it is good to see her here in Prague. She will sleep late this morning and I have some lessons to work on, as well as secure my bus tickets for Berlin next Wednesday, attempt to find pricing for internet service, and secure an isp provider and an installation date for the new apartment.

I interviewed on Wednesday with a client related to teaching that Business English certificate course; before the end of the interview the CEO gave the ok, so the week after next I will begin four 90 minutes classes a week teaching his staff. I continue to inch toward 26 teaching hours per week, plus my freelance student as well. Cheers +98
