Travel Money Tells a Story of It's Own

Going through my gear this weekend. Just in the past year all the different types of currency I have used.... in a way a map of my travels in 2010... Zloty (Poland), Lei (Romania), Floren (Hungary), Euro, Swiss Franks, and dollars.... many places absent but does tell a little story to me anyway. And since I still have it that I hope to return....

Prague Hockey and its special ways.

This past Friday I went to a Hockey game. Only my 2nd game ever and first in a Europe league. Here are some pictures of the unusual and entertaining aspects of hockey at the city city league level.


You have to have your colors.... this case Sparta. And a cup of good beer.
Fans are at ends like at NFL games. Sparta fans near our seats. Very rabbid.
Here they also have cheer leaders!!
End result.
Slavia fans doing the lighter thing at their spot on an end.

Just a view of the play.
And the oddest thing... twice a period girls come out in little skits to sweep the ice in the goal area at both ends. Not sure they do much but they are entertaining.

My first Prague snow

Snowing overnight in Prague. Lite snow fell last night and took this picture on the way to metro this morning before the snow melts.

Foggy Moon


Moon over central Prague. I like taking pictures down at W square as I head home in the evenings. This moon caught my eye.

Walking tour of Prague














These pictures are from short walking tour that our class took today. As my 4th trip to Prague only took a few snaps. Monuments, beer, and food. As you can see snow has gone but still quite cold.

These adds for Google Chrome caught my eye in the Prague metro today. My friend Antony is a Chrome programmer so dedicated to him and the translation link.
