It seems to rain quite a bit here. Last night on the way home, and once again this morning on the way to church. Just your average torrential downpour. We did go to the English-speaking Church today which was a little different than what we're used to, but it was good. There were lots of countries represented and somehow we embodied KFC and the Kentucky Derby for the church- Go Kentucky.
Afterwards we all trekked down to the local mall food court for lunch. Prague isn't much different than America I guess. It was nice since we haven't really done the group-lunch-after-church-thing in awhile, although that's kinda what I am used to. We are really grateful to be automatically included into everything even though we've only been here a few days.
This morning at church we met some new girls who have been here for awhile. They teach English and will live here until July. It was nice talking to someone new and hearing about their experience since it's different than everyone else's we've met so far. They were also telling us of their unique experience yesterday. They were walking in Old Town and looked up and saw a zombie. Random, but nothing to be concerned with... until there were lots of zombies. Zombie brides, nurses, you name it- pretty much having a parade. Well, actually having a parade. Apparently it was Zombie Day. Who knew?
Also, GI Joe is being filmed here... we may just have to hunt that one down too.
Made our first meal tonight. The spaghetti sauce was different. We couldn't read the name/flavor, so we just went with it. It was a little...well a lot too onion-flavored for our liking. Almost tasted like Mexican-Italian, if that exists. However the pasta and homemade garlic bread was great. We're waiting for the brownies to get out of the oven for our dessert!
All in all, good first weekend, work starts tomorrow! Should be a new experience as well. I will be going to the office everyday which we were not aware of at first. It should be entertaining since Bryan will be doing lots of technical work and tomorrow my job is making name-tags. Basically I'm helping where ever needed... and that job right now is name tags, so that's what I'm doing!
Last thing to accomplish before the weekend ends.... which is in about an hour here... is to try and get on a decent sleep pattern, we aren't doing too well with that. It's not that we're going on the time from home, no we're still going to bed at the normal time we would, which means it's just really late here.... and having to get up early doesn't work so well.... but we'll adjust soon...I hope!
