Přestup na linku C

If you've noticed a few changes, you're right! I changed the webcam picture at the top to one in Prague, specifically one showing Staromětské náměstí, the Old Town Square. I also threw in a pic of Prague's coat of arms. And below that, I added a new category to the links on the side, Prague Links, which (so far) includes Prague weather, a Prague map, and some general information about Prague, as well.

In other news, this past weekend, we went to Vyšehrad, a rocky outcrop overlooking the Vltava that is one of the oldest parts of the city. Legend says that it was the first seat of Czech royalty, and where Princess Libuše, the founder of the first Czech dynasty, is said to have prophesied the future glory of Prague. Yesterday, I sent out a host of resumes in the first step of my search for the ol' jobby-job, and capped off the evening by cooking up some guláš (you probably know it as goulash), which although Hungarian, is quite popular here in the Czech Republic, especially when served with knedlíky, or Czech bread dumplings. Overall, it was delicious, and quite a successful foray into Czech cooking for my first attempt, if I do say so myself.

Starting with cooking Czech food sounds nice but what about the language?

Patience! I've just spent the last month learning how to *teach* English! Give me a little time to find a job and get settled in before I start *learning* a whole new one...
