sníh (snow)

It became winter here in Praha! On Monday it snowed literally all day. Then again yesterday, Wednesday, early afternoon it decided to start up again in near blizzard-like force. (and this coming from the girl from Minnesota!) This morning I had 1 student arrive on time to class, while others straggled in late muttering complaints about late/delayed/non-existant transportation due to the bad weather.

Luckily, the nice Czech handyman came and turned on the heat in my bedroom last weekend because the temperature has dropped drastically and there's more talk of another round of snow...

i'm thankful for skype.

Happy Thanksgiving!!
In honor of turkey day I successfully pulled off a turkey hand-art project with my Czech students, making them tell me, 'Farmer Natalie', why I shouldn't kill them for my Thanksgiving dinner. It was hilarious.

After school I came home and had a skype-athon! First with my fam in Minnesota celebrating at Uncle Tom and Aunt Susie's house, then with the Nanny/Faust/Quinton/Pelant crew in SNOWY St Louis, and finally with Zoey in Seattle. whew!

Lots to be thankful for this year, and looking forward to our own attenpted Thanksgiving dinner this weekend in Praha!
