All of the letters in this post will be sides. GP decided that is cheating towards the end of my Prague adventure, so I will try my best to find most of the other letters in true, upright form. He agreed that the letters could be backwards, but not upside down or sideways.
I must say that I got the A+ tour of Prague thanks to GP and some other old friends. It was just the right mix of tourist stops as well as local and expat hangouts. My lodging was also included and only cost me a few extra people on my tab at lunch and in the beer garden.
No more delays, here are my first three letters from Prague along with the associated stories.

D – The excalator was actually really long (thus the reason I thought it would be a cool picture) but it took me a while to get a good picture without too much hand motion. To help you picture how long this as, this picture attempt was number 7 and I messed around with camera settings between each one. I arrived in Prague at night and this was the best I could do for my first night there. Very modern and un-Prague-esk.
E –I know this is a staged letter, but I had to capture the famous Czech beer somehow. This was taken in Riegrovy Sady beer garden where I only drank this one round, I swear Mom! (just kidding). You might also be able to see the big outdoor projection screen where people are watching soccer.
F- Prague Castle as seen from GP’s favorite spot in Vysehrad.
In case anyone does not know, my current Hamsterville roommate is Czech and fluent in the language. In hindsight, there are a few phrases and words I wish we would have gone over.
‘Thank you’ and ‘thanks’ happen to be tough words for English-speakers to get until many days of practice. Or maybe, it was just me (I will pretend this word is hard for many many many people just so I don’t feel un-teachable in the linqistical arts.)
Another statement I wish I would have asked Roomy the Czech translation is: ‘My boat it broken, can you tow us back to shore while telling us the really great story that goes along with that cast on your hand, pretty please?!’
I will let you marinate on that and await for the associated update with anticipation.
Until next time…
PS- The title is to remind me of another really good story I hope to do justice once back home.
