On to Brno

Today I traveled by train to Brno for the lecture this evening.    It’s so nice to be able to work as I travel, but the countryside is too pretty to not give some attention.  It’s overcast today, but it’s a lovely, warm spring.  The kids are out enjoying McDonalds.  With Easter coming up, vendors are selling traditional Easter gifts.  Sadly, seeing folks scrounging through trash is still quite common.     The street musicians fit in well with feel of life here in Moravia.  I’m still trying to figure out why the Czechs laugh and say that I am carrying my house on my back.
