Allright so whats new with me? Well I just moved to my 3rd host family this weekend, and it's a single mom right now named Elen. Her daughter is in the US in California for exchange and comes back in about a month. Speaking of which I leave on June 10th.. it's creeping up on me like crazy i have 60 days tomorrow 2 full months left ahead of me. So I have to get on it, as in do everything I wanted to do here.

So I had a kind of random Friday night this last weekend, to say the least. Jeff, Thomas, David (2nd host bro) and myself were all waiting at the train station to go to Ostrava. It is 20 km north of FM and it's 3rd largest city. Anyway there was 2 homeless guys there and they were both causing trouble with the taxi drivers inside the train station for whatever reason. After getting escorted out by the taxi drivers a couple times, one came on to the train platform where we were waiting for our train.
Now, this homeless guy has a name and that name is FRANTA!.. sounds like fanta but with an R. and after him telling David that he wants us to vote for him in the next Czech election which he wants to run for president of CZ in. haha The funny part to that is he didn't know that Vaclav Klaus was re-elected this year already and he thought we were saying Santa Claus..they sound kinda different ;)
Then our train came and Franta decided to go with us to Ostrava, we proceeded to videoing our conversation with him for about 10 mins. getting pictures and it was funny. He also started touching Jeff's hands saying they were to cold and then he kissed Thomas and Jeff both in the ears..that was awkward. Then at the end we gave him our 2 liter of pop because he wanted it and we went to meet up with our friends. (the end of that story)

Today I went to Elen's work (host mother) she's a surgeon at the hostpital and I got a little kind of tour it was cool. I also started talking to all of her work friends/colleages they asked me how I like Czech food and things like that. Elen is really cool I like her alot, she's currently remodeling her house and it's kinda crazy but it doesnt really bother me. Also she speaks English but not very much and so 100% talking to her is in Czech which is really good for me. It is my first host family to do this with so im excited. It's difficult and I make her laugh alot but she does that normally. Also on Sunday were going to Bald Mt. which is the 2nd highest peak in the CZ..but its also really small haha. I climbed it with my first host father Tony, and it took like an hour at most I think but it was fun.

Tomorrow a friend on exchange in Prague is coming to FM to visit to Sunday so he will be here for four days. So that should be fun I will post what we do, and im guessing we will have alot of pictures as well.

Then on April 28-30 we have a Venice trip and Jeff, Thomas and I are trying to stay later and travel because Jeff has family that lives in Italy but we shall see how that goes.
So thats all for now
