Fakt, jo!!

     So yesterday I went to the grocery store to get dinner (and beer :) I got some produce (grapes) and was paying for them at the check out. The lady says something in czech and hands the grapes back to me, I say I dont speak czech and she keeps them out in front of me, so I take the grapes and walk back to the produce, no idea what I'm supposed to do with them and holding up the entire line... I finally find a scale and press the button on it that looks more like fruits than veggies, then I press the button that looks like grapes on the touchscreen. I felt so confused! Then SO accomplished!!! Grocery fiasco for sure!
     In the czech language fakt = really. fakt, jo is more intense really than just fakt. Fakt neh = not really. I have a fun time saying these phrases ;) Also yes= ano/no/jo; that can be VERY confusing but after 5 hours of czech language intensive I feel less lost than I did before.
     I am finally learning how to use the metro and the tram system (I've only been here two full days but it feels like forever! I am reall glad to be learning so quickly!) Tonight we are taking the metro to the outskirts of town to a bar/restaurant that is having some musicians, should be interesting (and cheap since it is WAY outside the center of the city.)
     Today I woke up at 2:30! I am exhausted but hopefully I will sleep better tonight. I also woke up to a beautiful blanket of snow!!

     Prague is so beautiful! ciao! (for now! :)
