The Magical Mystery Literary History Tour travelers include architects, writers, editors, paralegals, software designers, computer engineers and self-described "geeks," homemakers, dancers, teachers, account executives, shop foremen, administrative assistants, water purification specialists, a doctor and even a clinical psychologist, helpful additions on any group tour, even a magical one.
They also include members of my family: my husband Byron LaDue, who posted an earlier blog entry (Kafka Project does Prague), my sister, Trudi Diamant, born in Germany and now living in Florida, and my cousin Karen and her husband Bob Willis of Virginia, have also joined the Kafka Project's mission to recover a lost literary treasure .
I have asked our group to contribute to this Kafka Project blog, in order to share with you the varied experiences we are having. While I've been able to participate in several of the city tours and meals--I try not to miss one of the great feasts we've been having--a good part of my time has been laying the groundwork for the upcoming research and getting the word out to the media. In Prague especially, the press coverage has been impressive, and many helpful new contacts have been made as a result.

Dear Kasha, unfortunately, we did not stop there on this tour...
I understand it is beautiful. Have you been?

Kathy and Byron!
Are you still in Germany?
If so, Obama has given a speech in Berlin.
Did you go? and regardless, what do your German friends say about him/his speech?
