Return to Prague

As we left Innsbruck on our way back to Prague it started to rain.  I think after every holiday we have we come back to Prague and are greeted with rain.  It is depressing!  As we neared Prague though it actually stopped raining which was a pleasant surprise.  We got home and I went to pick up Watson and takeout dinner since we had no food in the house.  It was nice to see Watson again and he was excited to see us.  He had a great time with Petra and Tom as usual.  He went to the mountains with Petra's language school and played with all the kids and he went for a camp out with Tom.  They hiked 30K (18 miles) and camped out.  I'm told Watson was very happy to sleep on the ground next to Tom and didn't bark all night.  He did get a little cold as it got towards morning but Tom put his jacket on him to keep him warm.  I can't picture Watson getting cold since he sits outside in the snow in freezing temperatures for long periods but I think it is sweet that Tom gave him his jacket.  Anyway, Watson playing in streams and learned to jump from rock to rock across waterfalls.  He was apparently unsure of this at first but eventually figured it out and then had a lot of fun.  He, as usual, came home happy and exhausted. 

After going to the grocery store on Saturday morning we just pretended we were still on vacation for the rest of the weekend.  We played a lot of tag with the girls.  They love playing tag and it is good exercise for all of us.  I love hearing the happy squealing as the kids run away from whoever is it.  I am always surprised at how fast the girls are getting and how they really understand the aspect of trickery in tag.  We finished our game and came inside just before the rain.  We had a nice surprise though since it was raining and sunny I went out on the patio to check for a rainbow and sure enough there was a beautiful rainbow over the fields.
