September 1st: Day 8 of Seminar

After that interesting ending to the previous night, we woke up to take part on our "Nontraditional Walking Tour." And I must say, it was very nontraditional. But first off, my foot was hurting a lot. I had cleaned it and covered it in bandaids. woohoo!
My friends and I figured the most important point was did I have a tetanus shot and if so would I still need another? I told Professor Bach, and he said I should contact my parents, to check up on medical records. That would have to wait until later in the day, considering the time difference.
Our tour started off at museum outside of Prague that commemorated a town Hitler completely destroyed. Then we headed to see the hotel that Stalin was supposed to speak at, but he was killed. Lastly, a museum that's opening date is 09/09/09. It was a new technological library with very interesting architecture. We got a "inside early look" I guess you could say. Yup, so I would definitely say that was a nontraditional walking tour for sure.
In the afternoon we had two lectures on current issues in the Czech Republic. One on the Roma Minority and another on Environmental Issues. The first one was pretty interesting and the second one, o boy, the whole room was lost. That night we explored the city a bit. Prague is gorgeous.
