Finally meeting other women

Today was a busy day for us (me and the girls). We met up with some other women for lunch. There is a group called the Housewives Club on the expats.cz website that gets together about once a month. (They are changing the name to Girls Night Out (GNO) starting this month so there are two outings this month. ) There was a group of 4 women (not including me) who met at a pizza place in Namesti Republicky (downtown). The restaurant was nice and had a kids area so the girls ran around and played with all the toys. It was nice to have adult conversation. It was a very multicultural lunch since noone was originally from Prague. (Phillipines, Poland, Russia, and US...I think I got that right). Everyone was really nice and welcoming. We stayed there for about an hour and the kids had a blast. We ran a couple errands and then came home. I will meet up with these same women for GNO on January 17th which should be fun.

After coming home and relaxing for a little bit I packed up the girls again and went to the park (with Watson too) to meet up with another woman. She had e-mailed from the expats.cz website to see if I wanted to get together. She has a daughter who is 2. We met at the park and had a good time. She is very friendly. She had lived in Prague for 8 years. She is Australian and her husband is Czech. I ended up meeting her husband as well since we left the park and headed by her apartment so I could see where she lived. Her husband just happened to be pulling into a park space as we were walking by. It is a small world too because her friend who is Australian and married to an American are in Prague for 2 years working for Monster (Jason's company).
