Guest Blogger: Lovely Lizbeth

This weekend, we are proud to introduce a new guest blogger with a nice little moment to share.

Meet Lizbeth, and her lovely eyeballs:


My magical moment with Michael Jackson:

I'll never forget walking through Prague at dusk one spring evening with Peter. It had just rained, we could smell the cool dampness and the cobblestones reflected the lights in the little streets off Staroměstské náměstí. The tourists had gone to dinner. The streets were quiet. And then all of a sudden they weren't...

Music floated through the darkening streets, softly bouncing off the old walls and filling the air. Michael Jackson was in town, doing a concert up near Prague castle. The breeze had changed and with it floated the faint notes of "Earth Song." Every time I hear that song I'm immediately taken back to that beautiful night, and that haunting music.

The photo is not mine, but it captures it pretty well

  3. Thank you, Lizbeth!

    I've heard nothing but good things about Prauge; to hear that particular song there in the particlar setting you describe would be amazing!
