Well, I am now , after a 9 hour plane ride and a quick drive through Austria, in the lovely Bratislava, Slovakia. It was definately worth the wait. The capital of Slovakia is very eclectic. The city fades gracefully from the old city in the middle of Bratislava to the newer apartments and skyscrapers.
Today has been a whirl wind of attempting to unpack, getting items that are necessary for our survival here (cable cars/bus passes), exchanging money, and brief walking tours of the historical part of Bratislava.
So. . . . now that we are pretty well oriented with the city. . . .what do we do??
After giving it some serious thought, the answer was SLEEP!!! We all need to begin to mentally and physically prepare ourselves for the intense semester that lies ahead.
I would write more but my brain is shot from lack of sleep, drinking coffee for the first time, and overwhelmed by this city. I will write more about the city in detail after I get some sleep and get some pictures so I can more acurately describe these wonderous sites.
P.S. . . . . I am within walking distance of a castle. . .how cool is that!! Promise it will be longer and better next time.
