So, What are Things Like There?

You could probably stand in a local store in the Czech Republic and almost think that you are in your neighborhood Wal-Mart.  Well, except for the fact that all the names have been changed to confuse the American.  We have gotten quite a few questions about stores and what they have, so we thought we would include just a few pictures for you to see. 




The store above is some what like the US Best Buy. It is located in one of the malls in Zlin. In the local Tesco, similar to our Wal-mart, we found washing machines, (pračky), microwaves (mikrovlnky) and refrigerators (ledničky).



We hope that we have one of the full size refrigerators in our apartment to store our milk, fresh bread and octopus. Well, octopus and other miscellaneous animals from the sea. What do you make with octopus? Yum.
