Hi Everyone,
I just booked my 4-day trip to Prague, Czech Republic and I'm very excited. Since the Yeshiva gives allows us a four week break in between the summer session and fall session I decided to take advantage of my close proximity to so many neat places. I booked a 4 night air + hotel package through Expedia for less than $750. My hotel is located just a few minutes' walk from the Old Town Square, Prague Castle, Jewish Quarter, which is one of the finest and most well-maintained in all of Europe, with four active orthodox synagogues, shops, and kosher restaurants. I intend to visit the Terezin death camp built by the Nazis and perhaps if I have time I'll venture to a brewery or one of the famous glass-blowing factories. With God's help, I'll also take the CzechRail to Vienna (a 4 hour train ride) and spend the day in Austria.
I wanted to remind you that you can reach me by phone at 1-480-305-0646, a local USA number linked to my Israel cell phone.
Baruch Hashem, it's finally starting to cool down here a little bit as we soon make the transition into the fall. During the intersession, I also hope to travel back up north to spend some more time in the Golan Heights area and IY"H see the seaport of Haifa.
All my best,
Jordan

Jordan,
I've been away myself; just having returned, I've very much enjoyed reading through your blog. Truly, you are experiencing in a few weeks what many people never get to experience in a lifetime! And it sounds as though you're taking great advantage of each moment. I am pleased to read of your blessings from the rabbis and also of your excursions out into the city and country - you show us that, despite media coverage and the violence of which certainly you must be cautious, a vibrant culture and community exists. Keep the postings coming! Jonathan Budd
