Fritz Working





Fritz is working now.  We are thankful for the meeting of the European VitreoRetinal Society that brought us to Prague.  Here is Fritz and colleagues in set-up photo pretending to work and next is Fritz really working.  The meeting is in the Municipal House which was built in the early 1900's and is Prague's most prominent Art Nouveau building.  The doctors give their talks in Smetana Hall - a concert hall also used as a ballroom.  Here is Fritz dropping an entry badge over the balcony to me so I can come in and eat all the delicious food served at lunch!   Again, my three food words came in handy.   The server was explaining the choices and I looked at the dumplings and asked, "Is it knedlicky?"  Much joy on the face.  When I came back for seconds, he spoke much Czech at me!

Seems to be an eating theme to your trip. Would you like to post a food review on my blog?

Your knedlicky sounds better than the protein smoothie I'm trying to suck down right now. Ah, to be in Europe again, where all the food necessitates walking tours.

Seriously, you're making me hungry! I've never had knedlicky. I feel that I may have to try some when you get home.

I shall have to try to make some Czech foods - I took photos of last night's food, it was so beautiful!
