Okay, I realize that I’v e completely slacked off on this whole blog thing for about the last month. Sorry. Life got a little hectic. The last one I wrote was from Germany when we were about half way through spring break and then my laptop went insane and stopped working. Just my luck. Anyways, to make a long story short, spring break was amazing. We finished up the trip with Austria (AMAZING!) and Prague. Those 2 weeks were QUITE an experience! We also made a ...
