Seeing the world from the railway is always great... you get to see the laundry hanging in the back yards, the wood piles, the old cars, the gardens and countless other things that you would never see going down streets in front of the houses... i think it gives a truer picture of how the people live... we are off to Prague traveling through what might be considered a winter wonderland.. except i have read too much about the war and the chill of the eastern front... so i keep flashing between the two worlds... one peaceful and festive the other war-filled and horror... but hey Prague is the home of Franz Kafka so between the two images i should be in great shape to understand his beliefs about his city and him..... "A belief is like a guillotine, just as heavy, just as light... (Kafka) "
