Days 13-15 - Prague, Czech Republic

5/29
Sunday was the first day of my Baylor study abroad program.  We are staying at the International Baptist Theological Seminary.  It is secluded from the city because it is surrounded nature preserves.  The buildings are really old and have a lot of history.  During German occupation in WW2 the buildings were used by the Nazi Secret Police in recording and processing captured Jews and other dissidents.  After the war the buildings were used by the Communist Secret Police to process those who tried escaping to Western Europe.




5/30
Monday was my first day of classes.  After class, as group we toured Prague Castle and St. Vitus Cathedral.  We climbed to the top of the tower and saw breathtaking views of the city.






5/31
Tuesday we had class and a film producer from Prague came and lectured to our class.  Afterwards Muskus and I wandered the city.
