Leaving Prague and heading to Fussen

By Steven Caesare on 7/28/2014
On our second full day in Prague we started off with a visit to the “Lennon Wall”, a piece of interior city wall that ended up with some of the song artist’s peace lyrics graffiti’d on it the day that Vladimir Lenin died. When the city painted the graffiti over, more appeared… this kept happening until finally the city just left it alone and it became kind of a memorial to the objection of Communist rule by the people. There are some pictures of it in the gallery pages.

Just a quick note that I think I've fixed the issue that was causing some of the pictures to show sideways in the galleries I posted earlier... sorry about that.

On to Prague...

By Steven Caesare on 7/24/2014

Yesterday (Wednesday), we packed up from Frankfurt, grabbed our car, a neat little Opel wagon, and made the 5 hour drive to Prague (or Praha, as its called locally). Actually it took us a little bit longer than that, as we stopped in Nurnburg for lunch at about the half way point. The drive was a nice way to see more of the country side along the way. It's amazing how, if you remove the mad made stuff, the countryside here looks like it could have been any number of places in the US.

Post convention activities in Frankfurt

By Steven Caesare on 7/22/2014
Yesterday (Monday) we went with a group of brothers and sisters on a cruise of the Rhein river. After a 90 minute drive through the countryside to Rudesheim, we arrived at the top of on of the peaks along the river valley. Here, there is a statue of Kaiser von Wilhelm, one of last rulers before WWI. We met a number of friends here, including a large group of Arabic speaking brothers and sisters from Lebanon.

Two weeks in Europe

By Steven Caesare on 7/18/2014
Thought I'd post a few updates along the way as the family travels to Frankfurt Germany for the 2014 International Convention of Jehovah's Witnesses. After a week in Frankfurt we'll be heading to Prague in the Czech Republic for a few days, and then Fussen Germany for the remainder of the second week. We then head back to Munich for the flight home.
