We took a trip with some of our teammates and friends yesterday to a near-by castle. It's only 30 minutes from Olomouc and it's one of the most well-preserved castles, and a large one, in central Europe. It's from the 1400's and it's gorgeous. For some parts only the ruins remain, but they were still in good shape. We had a wonderful time and the weather could not have been more perfect. Kuba, of course, loved being outside, being with the people, and exploring the sites with us. This castle also had an small, but awesome, exhibition of art made by blacksmiths. I have a lot of pictures so I'll get those started. :)
A view from the watch tower.
Jakub got pretty heavy by the time we had climbed to the top:)
Inside the ruins, which are not all that "ruined" when compared to other places and castles we have visited before. This one really was pretty in-tact and well-preserved.
The best family photo we could manage at the time.
Me and Sarah trying to be serious long enough for a photo with our kids:)
That's a little better...
A mosquito, which was labeled in Czech as the night torturer. So appropriate...
A musician
Kuba and his friend (born on the same day in Olomouc) Vita at our children's class.
Jakub learning to feed himself...
He's learned how to sit himself up if he has something to pull up on or push off of. I think the bouncy seat is no longer really safe:) He can also sit himself up from the boppy pillow. He can almost do it on the floor from his tummy, but not all the way. He's getting up on his knees and rocking a lot now, but our wood floors are slippery so he does it better when we're somewhere with carpet or on a bed. He's still biting and drooling like crazy, but still no teeth. Ok, have to go. It's time for his morning nap:)
