Quick update before adventuring

So much happens here every week/day/hour that it is impossible for me to keep up with all of the amazing things I have experienced since I arrived. On Sunday, I went with a group of people to the bone church which is about an hour outside of prague by train. it was AMAZING. With nmy student ID it cost 20Kc to enter (about one dollar). The church is centuries old and it is decorated with human bones dug up from a grave nearby. I have already found so many things in this city that were beyond my wildest dreams.

Here is Olivia in front of these temple-looking structures made ut of bones.



Since we were travelling with someone named Barbara, we obviously had to go visit the St. Barborosa Cathedral. It was so beautiful. The stained glasss was like nothing I'd ever seen before... Chad told me a few days later that this was because the glass was painted instead of stained... very cool!!
