Hi family and friends,

I am so sorry that I have been so horrible in keeping you up to date with my life. I have been stressed about all the work I to do with finals, papers, and presentations. The fact that I'm leaving Barcelona on the 20th is hitting me strong. I have been having the time of my life, but there is so much more I want to see and experience. This last week I'm trying to balance work and fun, but there is a lot of work! I aslo have to pack soon, and Leash, and Jenny are coming in two days! I am so excited, but I hope I can get everything done before they get here. Anyways November 22-24 I traveled to Prague with a bunch of my girl friends. Our first day there was a mellow sight seeing day that ended in a white xmas! The snow was absolutely beautiful and it peacefully fell from the sky. We tried caching the flakes in our mouths and throw snowballs. We were taken back to our childhood. In the main square where we were, there were tons of little stands that sold sausage sandwiches. Since Prague is known for their sausage, I had to try it! It was sausage and onion on a baguette.. absolutely delicious! The next day was our main touring day we crossed the Charels Bridge and headed over to the old side of the city. We made some purchases of enormous furry hats and headed over to the John Lennon wall. This was one of my main highlights of the trip. There are so many quotes and deep thoughts, people have so much to  say and this allowed a small portion of the world to see it. I tagged up the wall a little bit just putting my name and fall 08. After admiring the wall we proceed up the hill to the Lobkowicz Palace, and went inside the Cathedral. We got some hot wine and enjoyed the view of the city from a top. The view was spectacular, the buildings covered in snow, the sun shining down, and the water glimmering. That night we wanted to experience a typical Cezch meal so went to the first one we saw. We were told that the beef goulash is a must, so we ordered that. It was absolutely delicious, the beef goulash came in a big pot in which you spooned it out on top of crackling and bread dumplings. I wasn't sure what I was eating nor did I want to know, but it was fenominal. After the bartender suggested we try Becherovka, which is the Nations alcohol.  The only known spice is cinnamon and the other is unknown. Of course and I were trying it out, but no luck. The drink tasted like xmas in an alcohol form, it was tasty! Our trip to Prague was a success, I absolutely loved the atmosphere, the people, and the beautiful scenery, and the good food was a plus too! haha. Definitely a place to see. That's all for now I will try to write more before I'm off. Love you all and I hope all is well

xoxo,
