A little music ...
Here's 20 seconds of a band that was playing on Wenceslas Square yesterday. I love buskers.
House Rules: Video Games and Music
Home Schooling Dream vs. Reality Our initial home schooling dream had the kids studying Latin and Greek, speaking German fluently, finished with Calculus and starting college courses by the time they were 14, and running their own successful business selling artisan cheese made from the milk of our goat herd. Also, they would never watch TV or play video games. Then the kids were born. It turns out that, in the interest of maintaining my sanity, I’m more of a Relaxed Home Schooler. This is also why I’m a Relaxed Housekeeper. We didn’t even teach the kids German, which both Jon and I speak fluently, although I maintain that the main reason for this is not laziness but our reluctance to give up our secret language. The kids are on track to do Calculus before they start college at or near 18. We never got the goats, although we have plans to get some when we return to the US, and we did have chickens for a long time. The chickens laid eggs for us, but we didn’t sell them. We just
Love it.
ReplyDeleteI do too. What's a busker?
ReplyDeleteBuskers are street performers who just show up and perform in public, usually with a hat or can or instrument case open to receive tips from people. There are lots of them here, on Charles Bridge and in the squares, but I've also seen lots of them in New York, especially in Central Park. They're often quite good. I think sometimes music students go there just to play together for a while and get some extra money.
