One of our vacationing highlights is attending the Mormon church when we travel. All 3 hours and we usually meet fun people. We were pleasantly surprised to have headset translation for our meetings and met a handful of Americans working in Prague. The Prague branch has wide boundaries, the farthest away lives 70 minutes from the church. 
After church the YM/YW prepared a small program and I happened to sit next to a primary worker. I gave her the presents and asked her for her email because I wanted to email a man who talked to me but had to leave early.
Her name was Susan Zmolic. Zmolic? I know Zmolics! "Gennie Zmolic is my mother in law! "she said." you grew up in Short Hills Ward then?" Yes, I grew up in Short Hills Ward in NJ. Susan married Ginnie's oldest son, Martin, who was gone from Short Hills ward by the time we moved there. What a small world.
For our Sunday school class, I shared how we have been blessed. I shared the story of Janell, how she was developmentally delayed. I went through what happened and now she is on a mission. After the class a man, working at the US Embassy came up to me and said his son is 2 1/2 years old and is exactly what I described. He asked some questions and I think we gave him hope! He told us how sweet his son is and how he wouldn't hurt anyone..... just like Janell. Sweetness to the core!
Kay and I rented a car and after church made a road trip to Kutna Hora. We had terrible maps but made it. I could hardly read the maps putting my glasses on top of Kays! Frustrating! It was a nice drive and nice to get out of town. They had some pretty impressive buildings there. Prague is not for cars so Budget said we could park the car there overnight and take it out again in the morning. The public transportation is amazing here and there is no need for cars. Even Kunta Hora and Terezin are more accessible by train than car. Kay was glad we rented the car because he loves the adventure but if adventure means driving down the one way streets the wrong way, driving through pedestrian only zones, driving down sidewalks and getting lost in a maze with no idea which direction you are going you can count me out. With the difference in signs ( some were not in the Budget guide), sometimes we didn’t know if we were doing something wrong except for the surprised looks of pedestrians. He followed other cars up and down stairs in the streets. We realized the “Budget Rental Car” huge sticker in the rear window was a kind of “student driver” warning, people were very kind to us. Thank goodness for all the “CENTRUM” signs that point you back to downtown, assuming you are in the right town.
