Baby It's Cold Outside

Hi everyboby, since I have fallen so far behind I've decided to just go

ahead and start writing with now, so I don't fall even further. Woke up

We're talking frostbite cold people

the morning and had to tiptoe around, there is this miserable girl in

the room who slept with the window open so all the cold air came in and

when these couple other girls were whispering jumped up and screamed

obsenities at them. So needless to say we were all as quiet as church

mice. Well Cook dared to open a window and peer out, and fortunately

the dragon slumbered through it, but what magnificent site should greet

our eyes but a light snow! Then we heard it was to be -5(celcius) out,

yikes! and that was the maximum. So we commenced to readying ourselves

to face the day and headed down to breakfast. They have the best honey

and nut kelloggs here, we partook of it for the 3rd or 4th day in a

row, and alas it is now gone. Then I read my book some, A Connecticut

Yankee at King Aurther's Court, which I suppose explains my lovely

newfound writing style. Alas, that always happens with me after I read

a book, the author's style sort of grabs ahold of me for a time, but

there are far worse styles than mister Twain's. Back to business. So we

endervered off to find the castle and if not storm it at least get an

eyeful of it. So off we went, and though the snow hath ended the cold

still had the bite of a thousand niping imps. We braved it and held

steadfast to our goals. Verily in time they were accomplished too, for

as we emerged from the enchanted forests who's very ground had tried-

in vain- to cause us harm by laying us on our backs, we where awestruck

at the sight of yonder palace. Alright not awestruck, as it is less

ostenasious as we had expected, but impressed. So we headed inside and

began our tour. The palace was beautiful inside, Gigi would love it.

Unfortunately we were not permitted the privilage of taking photos, but

it was quite lovely. Occasionally a little over the top, but royalty

seems to like over the top so, hey. The  one bed was out of the world,

oh my lord it was fantastic. I think the coolest part though was the

kids museum where they got to dress up in costume and then  (though I

think they paid extra for this) get a all kids tour of the museum. We

passed one such group and my goodness they were so cute in their little

gowns. Then we  braved the cold to go to the cafe where we watched a

demonstration on struedel making in German and got a free sample. Well

Cook watched it while I finished my book. Then out into the cold once

more, but I swear it had gotten so much colder. My face hurt really bad

till finally it went numb and my eyes hurt the whole time as did both

our hands. All this and we each had on 2 pair of gloves and coats and

multiple layers. We were going to go to the gardens but decided that

since it was mid-Winter why bother. Then we were going to go to the

cathedral, we had only seen it from afar before, but it was getting

dark so decided against it. On the walk to the hostel got lost,

somehow, and by luck stumbled onto the underground line that goes to

our hostel. Only two stops away. Went back and cooked a lovely dinner

then wrote to some lovely people, tomorrow: Prague.
