Today was our second day of the Czech Intensive course. We have a quiz tomorrow and tons of homework so this e-mail will probably be a pretty short one [no promises though]. We got a new teacher today, we think that our actual teacher, the one today, was sick or something yesterday so the woman we had was just a sub type. We like her better though. This new teacher is much less pleasant and harder to understand despite her speaking in English. Hopefully it will get better. After class we had a "city walk" where Jan, one of the directors, took us around the neighborhood where our school is and showed us restaurants and stores that he recommended. Then he took us through Charles Square, relaying some very interesting history about the surroundings and such. It, being the city walk, ended close to Popsicle square so some of us walked back [the usual group of girls]. On the way back we got some ice cream [the czech word is zmrzlena, what the heck huh?], and then we climbed the tower of the new city hall. It was pretty awesome. Then we walked back and here I am now. I'm going down later to the other girls apartment for a vino of the world tasting. We purchased a czech wine, a hungarian wine, a south african wine and an australian wine that we are going to sample each night.
