Day 33

haha So I´m still playing catch up.. so for the sake of this blog.. today is Sunday... My first full day with my host family 2.

Today Vitek is helping out at a First Aid training program, so I will be getting to know the family without the help of his english.. Itĺl be a great way to practice my Czech! Adam, Mirek, Jindra, and Vitek are all helping, they are actors and will be acting out skits all day that result in horrible fake (but realistic looking) cuts and wounds, and tons of fake blood! It is also My sisters Name Day today! YAY!!! We had a great breakfast together adn chatted for a few hours, a little in Czech and a little in English. It was good to get to know eachother. After our chat I finished unpacking and got a little more comfortable in my room, putting some pictures up here and there! We had a fantastic lunch than headed out for walk. Its great, there is a forest near the house and its the perfect setting for long walks. The weather is fantastic today. A light sweater and some pants and you are set for a walk in the woods, which is exactly what we did!

Tomorrow is Babičkas birthday so we went over to have a joint celebration: her birthday and sisters name day.. Grandma was so cute! Vitek told me that she had talked with him him earlier and asked how to say a few things in English. It was adorable! We toasted with champaigne then had some delicious cake. I didn´t understand very much but Grandma, Grandpa and one of their aunts were there, so it was great to meet the family.

I chatted with Jindra tonight using ICQ for the very first time!!! Its really popular here, its there version of MSN.

So i forgot to mention yesterday, that i missed International Slow Walking Day.. it was on Friday. Jindra ¨, Vitek and I were talking about it last night.. :(

I found out that its mom b-day on Friday so I´ll have the chance to meet more family!

The family that I am with now is really active. Today they told me the routine...Monday-Pilates, Tuesday-Swimming, Thursday- Aerobics and Friday- Swimming.. its fantastic!!! There is Wednesday and the weekends free and there is always the forest close by!

Had another great day!!
Na zdraví
