Leaving
Hello,
Training has just ended. The Czech team is flying out tomorrow (well I guess it is technically later today by the time I am posting this) for the Czech Republic. So think of me as I am en route and getting set up over the sea. Until next post...

Now this is the entire Czech team. Disregard the other photo with that claim.
The entrance to Aylward House (our dormitory)- note the window above and to the right- that is the room I shared with Zach at training.
William Carey U- looking out on our makeshift frisbee field and the mountains

2005-6 teachers (that were at training, so all first-years and a few alumni) I'm lying down in the front on the right with the red shirt and shorts.

The Czech Team- everyone is so photogenic with the exception of me straining to get above Zach (Oklahoma guy). p.s.- Ben is on my immediate right, left if looking at the picture.
Greetings!
I am currently in Pasedena, CA in the middle of training to teach in the Czech Republic next year. Three weeks down, two to go. In fact, this past weekend I got to fly back to the midwest to see a good friend, Dan, get married. A special time with friends and family. Following a crazy trip by Joel and Dad to get Abigail back from New York City, my immediate family made the trip down to Evansville for the wedding. A great time to see everybody one last time. But it was strange telling everyone "I'll see you in a year!"
So it's back to training. Which is good, I have a long way to go before I even feel like a teacher. But I guess some of those things will just come with experience once we get overseas. I am going to try to put up a picture of our Czech team. It's a great crowd, some very gifted teachers among us. While there will be only Ben and I in our town of Pribram, there are a few of these teachers up in Prague, and hour bus ride away.
Ok. That's all for now.
