Pre-Thanksgiving
Thursday was a busy day. Jose's friend from Mass Art flew in for a couple of weeks to do a film. We are happy to have him here. Our landlord flew in the same day from Texas, and we spent time going over apartment issues together. He is very nice, and we enjoyed his company. We also had movie night for UNYP students, watching "I am Sam."
Mid term grades and mid term exam grades were given out. UNYP students are doing very well in the course. They are working hard. One said he spent 14 hours on the mid term (a take home.
Friday was the anniversary of the Velvet Revolution in 1989, and also the anniversary of the day when the Nazis closed all universities and executed 7 students in 1939. We found no ceremonies, but went to Wencelas Square where these things took place, and prayed for another Velvet Revolution, a revival.
We watched a movie about John Hus with our IICS friends. John Hus, a Bohemian/Czech, was the originator of the Reformation, not Martin Luther.
On Saturday Lloyd and I went to the Castle District and St. Vitus Cathedral. It is awesome! A study in Christianity, all through art!
That night Jason, Jose's friend, treated us to dinner at a restaurant where cavemen were the theme. The restaurant was decorated as a cave, the waiters were dressed as cavemen, and the names of the dishes fit the theme. Interesting!
Sunday Lloyd went to a Sports Bar to watch the Patriots play. He enjoyed himself!
I am feeling better, still coughing some and constantly using tissues, but not as drained. Six more weeks!
