Praha--------> Los Angeles

Just before Christmas carps are sold on the streets in Praha because for Christmas everyone eats fish. Plus Christmas is more celebrated on the 24th instead of the 25th. On my last day I went to a great contemporary museum because my friend works there. I was able to see a lot of great exhibits. Then I flew from Praha to Moscow. In Moscow I had a terrible 8 hour layover. Luckily I met some really nice people and it made the time go by much faster. Then I got on the plane and I was ready to pass out, however I couldn't because something was wrong with the plane and everyone had to get off. We all had to wait another 2 hours, so all in all I had a 10 hour layover. Once we landed in Los Angeles our gate was occupied so we had to wait another 30 minutes. Lets just say I was VERY VERY happy once I got home. Too much traveling!! I'll be home for 5 days and then I'm going back to Santiago. Gotta make these days count!!!

last days in Praha

While walking around Praha I saw that people were making their own coins. Of course I had to do this. It was cool because you choose what design you want on your coin and they give you the templates and the giant hammer. Now I have my own Praha coin. My friends and I went to a club where another friend was having a concert. It was a lot of fun. Thanks to those who participated!

house party.....bucharest, romania

For my second night in Bucharest, my friend had a party at his house. I got to eat some traditional Romanian food and drink some traditional Romanian liquor. It was a great chill night after such a crazy night the day before. It was nice meeting everyone! The next day a taxi to the airport. The taxi driver who was a gypsy taught me some words, but at the end of the ride he took some extra money from my change and said it was for good luck. I told him that he needed to give me the correct amount of change and he just smiled, shook my hand and said with a smile good luck. Of course I had to have a gypsy story from Romania, haha!

Les Elephants Bizarres concert-----Bucharest, Romania

I decided to fly to Bucharest for 2 days to visit the band and talk about the song that they are going to make for me. Luckily while I was there they had a concert. Immediately after my friend picked me up from the airport we went to his daughter's preschool Christmas party. The first song the kids sang was in English. I was impressed. After the Christmas party we went to the bar/club in which the concert was at. It was such a great concert with some awesome Romanian bands. These guys know how to party. We got back at 8am. Best night I've had this year. Thanks guys for an awesome concert and night!!!! Can't wait for the song!!!
