Prague Journal

Thursday, July 14, 2005.

Rick is off to see Ales and Jirka again this morning. His math collaborations have gone extremely well, but he is feeling the pressure of time as we realize that we have only two more weeks here before we head back to the US.
We had arranged to meet Hana and Radim for dinner near the Strahov monastery near Prague Castle. They are in Prague visiting their parents and this is their last week here before they return to New Hampshire. We took them to the "Peklo" ("Hell") brewery/restaurant, where Rick and I had eaten earlier this fall with the Fulbright folks. This evening, however, we sat outside, enjoying the warm weather. After dinner we strolled down the hill to Malostrana, enjoying the lovely view of the city on an unusually clear evening. We had eaten dinner early, so we were home before 10pm, just in time to beat the sudden change in the weather – more rain.
This evening’s email contained a note from our renters informing us that they will be leaving at the end of this month. So, it looks like we will be moving back to our old house, at least for awhile.
