Autumn is here.
It's rainy and cold outside,
but I sip on my cup of peppermint tea.
We've got a long day of classes ahead and a long week of teaching too.
But we're almost there, two more weeks!
Fun Prague fact I learned this weekend: Hitler liked Prague, so he refused to bomb it. And it was here that he planned to have a museum about the extinct Jewish race. Crazy man!
He was tempted to bomb it after assassination of Reinhard Heydrich. But he settled with deaths of his assassins and total annihilation of Lidice and Lezaky.
ReplyDeleteHere is a nice documentary about Lidice and its people.
