Flew overnight Wednesday into Madrid, then hopped to Prague.  Arrived late afternoon, got showered and suited up, and then delivered brief to select group of grad students at top local international relations institute (the host: Associace pro mezinarodni otasky, or Association for International Affairs).  Went about 90 and did another 30 Q&A.  Then dinner with Director Tomas Karasek.

Next day I oversleep and am awakened by host  15 minutes before scheduled talk at beautiful nearby old 19th-century building (same place I spoke the night before).  I scramble and we start 10 mins late.  Similar-length effort for select audience of diplomats and others.

Then have lunch with intern, who is my guide for afternoon-long walking tour of Prague.
