The Crucifix on the Catholic Church; some buildings near the church.


A building across from the church; Brno city square


City square; I not sure how much the building weighs, but it looks like these guys can handle it.


Notice the middle spire. Story below. And yes it is an alligator, but the legend goes that it is really the Brno DRAGON. Story below.


The class

Every Wednesday I've been calling my small group back home. For us here it's been either 1:30 or 12:30 in the afternoon when I make the call. For the guys back home it's 6:30 in the morning. i have the class usually say "Good morning" in their language. when I was in Moldova, we had so many different language groups represented that it really was an international "Good Morning" We counted it up after and Good Morning was said in about 12 different languages. Today it was all one language but they all said it together. It was pretty loud too. It was fun to say good morning, even though it was 12:30 in the afternoon.

Here are some pictures of Brno I took last night. It's a nice little city.
The bent spire.
Seems like the city hired this contractor to build this building. they told him that they would pay a certain sum of money. When the time came to pay him, they gave him less, so he made the middle spire tilt, so that everytime someone would look at the building they would remember his story.
The Brno DRAGON:
Someone brought an allegator to the city and was going to show it around, but he died before he can tell people what it was, so they thought it was a dragon.
