The town is wonderful, but the keyboards are crazy. Czech has 42 letters, so typing is, at best, an exercize in frustration. Y and z share the same key. I have no idea how I did it, but I did get them both to type at one time, so now I cut and paste. Oh, and the exclamation point and the apostrophy do not work as I expect them to. But I know how to avoid those little pests. With that said, I am hoping the German keyboards are much kinder.
Our hotel has no guest computer, and internet cafe are few and far between. I am sitting in the attic at a train station right now. It is hot and I am sweating, so do not expect great whit or earthshaking commentary. But do expect some errors.
Traffic in Prague is pretty amazing. The Czech seem to be opposed to stop signs or traffic lights or anything else that makes crossing the street safe for toddling old men. We just toddle as quickly as we can. We visited Terezin or Theresienstadt today. I would use parantheses, but they do not work, either. Terezin was a Nazi concentration camp, but not an extermination camp. It was a transport camp. It was very moving. I will tell you more when I sweat less and can keep the letters straight.
