This is probably about the 12th time I've sat down in Starbucks with my Prague travel book with every intention of planning my 3 days there. And this is the 12th time since I've been in Starbucks today that I've glanced knowingly at that poor neglected book. I feel overwhelmed about planning that part of my journey, because the time will be short and the sights to see/things to do will be many. I can't decide if I want to just feel it out when I get there, or if I want to go ahead and plan every minute and be gracious with myself when I blow 81% of those plans to get intentionally distracted by a million beautiful and mysterious things I could never have planned for.
My brain still hasn't dumped the files from "dream" to "reality" with this whole trip. Maybe that's why I'm having trouble planning well. But I do know that this time next week, I'll be in the thick of it, and hopefully enjoying myself completely, because the following Monday the nose goes to the grindstone and coursework begins. I'm excited for and intimidated by the challenge, yet I know it'll be good for me in a myriad of ways.
I've been in contact with a Youth with a Mission group there, and hope to be able to plug in with them some, but still don't have any concrete info on that. I don't have any idea what the spiritual climate of Pilsen is like, but I think I'm about to get a crash course. Definitely coveting prayers for that aspect especially.
Ok, well...4 1/2 days and counting til take-off. Stayed tuned, and keep Czeching it out peeps.
