First Day

Helllo alllllllll

So I am going to try to keep this update but who knows.

So first day... its been a long one... a very long one. Left Btown at around 430 on a hugeee 747 full of people. I didn't have anyone next to me on the flight but there on my left there was a painter who was flying back to Egypt because no one was buying houses and on the other side was a Harvard music professor. the harvard professor bought three seats for herself, one for her, one for her stuff, and one for her String bass... yea three seats.. ok moving on... Only took 6:05 to Frankfurt which is astonishing.... We were all amazed but when we landed in Frankfurt it was very obvious that we were the first flight of the morning. We got off our plane and followed the signs to where our next plane was supposed to be... We landed in a "Island Terminal" which you had to take a tram to get back to the major terminal... BUT since it was 515 in the morning, the tram hadn't even started running yet.... So our entire plane sat around on the platform for 20 minutes until the automated train started running...

Walked a long way (Frankfurt airport is HUGE) and went to get into the customs line... but wait its now only 545... and customs doesn't open until 6! So yes more waiting for it to open... When customs finally did open, they didn't accept my passport for a good 5 minutes..... Don't know why it just wasn't working for them.... Nerveracking (but I was with 20 Tufts kids going to Madrid and I found some NYU kids too) We finally cleared customs, went through security and walked towards our gate. At the first security, no problem. Due to construction, we had to leave the secure area and go through security again... They then thought I had some explosive in my backpack as they ran it through the xray 3 times, then hand search, then the bomb sniffing machine... yep....

Finally got to our gate, had a 2 hour layover, and due to our body clocks, it was 12am est.... (6 local) sooo we all went to the pub for a drink... Finally got on our plane to prague, landed, everyone but one girl got all their bags and went to walk through customs (which didn't exist, it was just one random guy sorta walking around). SO obviously I am the only one out of a group of 30-40 that he checks and looked at my passport.... God... (At least I didn't get puked on like some other girl coming from JFK!)

Then we got on taxi/small busses and came to Machova where I am nowww just exploring.... We are having Pizza soon so I must go but update soon!
