Oh and is it ever good wine.. straight from the winery in Moravia that has been working for the Archbishopric since the 13th century. I brought home a few bottles as presents and a couple for myself.
Well, you see, one can't find decent Czech/English dictionaries in America at reasonable prices. Barnes & Noble tried to sell me a crappy one for $75! But I bought some excellent ones for much much less. They just weigh a lot.
You are like the conquering hero, returned with spoils of victory. (While I can't quite picture Julius Caesar toting a Gaulish/Latin dictionary back to Rome, you can bet someone in his entourage did.) Your memories will long outlast the wine.

Yesterday, I was in dire need of a Sherpa for those bags. I just had so many books, the Customs Officer laughed at me.
