Last week we went to Krakow which was pretty great. Tuesday we did a bike tour of the city. The weather was perfect, and it was a ton of fun. I got super sunburnt. Wednesday was really cold and drizzly. Appropriate for the trip to Auschwitz. It was pretty much what one would expect, really sad and relatively hard to believe or comprehend. Thursday, we went to the Salt mines outside of Krakow which were beautiful and amazing. There are entire chapels built out of rock salt down deep in the Earth. Then, we drove home. Driving into Prague and recognizing the streets and squares made it feel like home. This city is incredible. On Friday, some different people in the program all went to the small town ofPlzen in the Czech countryside where they brew Pilsner-Urquell beer. We went on a tour of the factory more affectionately known as Beer World and got to taste some unfiltered, unpasteaurized, traditionally fermented Pilsner. It was delicious. The best beer I have every had.
Apologies for the bare bonesness of this, but I'm using a computer at the school and the spacebar blows and is pissing me off.
