I&#8217;ve not yet suffienciently gotten on Randy&#8217;s nerves yet&#8230;and he&#8217;s avoided getting on mine. The weather in London was pure crap. The first day was nice, but it rained Saturday, Sunday, Monday and Tuesday. Ugh.<\/p>\n<p>We did manage to get to loads of places, though: Royal Observatory, Victoria and Albert Musuem, (the recently charred) Cutty Sark, London Tower, Tower Bridge, the Gherkin, Harrod&#8217;s (unbelievable), National Portrait Gallery, Trafalgar Square, Soho, London City, Piccadilly Circus, South Kensington&#8230;and more (I&#8217;m sure I&#8217;m forgetting).<\/p>\n<p>We arrived in Prague yesterday via EasyJet (I don&#8217;t understand people&#8217;s complaints about this budget airline. The plane was new, the crew was friendly, the ride was efficient. Anyway, Prague is AMAZING. It&#8217;s unbelievably beautiful, our apartment\/hotel is in the heart of everything and the weather is far better than London (albeit with clouds). But over the next three days the weather is to approve. So far we&#8217;ve only done Old Town Square (our backyard) and the Charles Bridge. We&#8217;ve still got the National Museum, Prague Castle and dozens of other places to see.<\/p>\n<p>Alas, the hotel&#8217;s free computer doesn&#8217;t have a USB port so I am unable post photos until I get to Paris this weekend. So please be patient, my dear poodles, and I will overwhelm you soon. Well, as long as I can figure out this damn Czech keyboard. Things are in weird places&#8230;there are extra letters and some keys have 4 functions (for example one single button does four different things, but I can&#8217;t figure out how to shift (or control) to get the other functions to appear.<\/p>\n<p>So, that will be my reason for any typos today. It&#8217;s the keyboard, it&#8217;s not me.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hey, all! Things are going well in Europe.
