gluten free finally!

Finally found one gluten free food. Even though its a european disease, praha doesn't cater to people like meee. but the main food here is meat, potato and dumplings (not like chinese but like a biscuit). today we went and explored a hugee castle in prague called Karlstein. It's funny because now i know why i friend karl (who is german) got his name. The king of the Czech was named Charles, which is a german derivative. Now i know why he thinks hes the king! haha just kidding karl. but i learned many random facts today. so here they are!
-there has been only 1 shooting in the last 20 years, (mom im safe dont worry)
-their language is slavic which is a mix between Polish and Russian

-DAD: you are going to LOVE it here. the architecture is absolutely beautiful, a lot of iron work around windows and door frames. it's actually known for its architecture, and you are going to LOVE it

-prague is actually named the "magical" city, i thought it was just its reference. yup im living in disney world

-people from praha are very cold. you don't see them smile in public, and when bubbly ignorant americans like myself appear, they turn the other way. they think we are too personal and friendly. i smiled at a guy on the tram, got a dirty look, smiled at another guy, got another dirty look. gosh didn't think my smile was that offensive!

-my adventures continue tonight, we are hopefully going to this discoteca that has 5 floors with different kinds of music on each!

Auntie Pam, here are some pictures. the rest are on facebook!
