statue of Mother Mary and Jesus
May I ask for a close picture of the statue of Mother Mary and Jesus. Kindly thank you Barbara.

Been there too!!
Hi! My husband and I spent 15 years (after the Revolution) living and working in the Czech Republic. He is a Lutheran minister, so the Betlems immediately captured my attention as well. Other references to the real meaning of Christmas were highly discouraged under Communism, but these were allowed as part of Czech artistic culture. I have see n so many amazing ones and began to collect them - buying one or more in each village, museum, outdoor market, gift shop, etc. that I would find. I also bought them when we traveled to other countries on vacation. I have some wonderful wooden, ceramic, cornhusk, straw, paper and glass Betlems. I have been asked to display as many as I can for a Christmas stroll in Dec. in a town near where we live. When I have more time, I will send you photos of some of mine. I also have one printed on cardstock that requires construction and I have never gotten to it. I have the cookie cutters to make one of gingerbread which is so much fun - I will begin making a new one soon. Glad to have seen your article! PEGGY

The Castle
I really enjoyed that. Castles are so interesting, amazing how they were made with man power. So glad some are preserved so we can still see them. Thanks for sharing. When are you going back?

BEAUTIFUL BLOG...OR IS IT ELBOW?
I feel I could get around Loket no problem with your info...looks like a beautiful destination...great photos!

I did as told to scroll down, but nothing came up. Let's do dinner sometime in August or anytime for that matter.
Let's do dinner soon. I am free most days.

By car is cheaper (even with a car hire)
I would recommend you to hire a car and go. It's cheaper and the freedom is a great advantage. http://www.auto-europe.co.uk
