Trains and Bohumin





We had a 4 hour train ride back to Bohumin (Denča's home town) and there were no seats on the train. We made benches from our bags, which were great!

Arriving in Bohumin was great. We have gotten some team time as well as gotten to meet Denča's parents, who are way cool. I can't even begin to describe the hospitality! Yesterday was a rest day. We spent the day as a team at the lake where some of the boys went "cliff" diving. The water was beautiful. No tan though, does that surprise any of you? :)

Today we went to one of the local schools to teach english to a couple classes. We taught them some slang like...

"What's up bro?"
"Nice shot!"
"Good Call"
"For Sure"


What a great laugh that was. Some of the girls looked at me and said "She is crazy! She is smiling a lot!" (Lucie translated that for me....) Awesome....

Also, Brad and Lucie love each other a lot and it's cute. The above is a perfect example!
