My first visit to CZ. I went to visit my cycling friends which I met in Poland during my Baltic Sea cycling trip.

Typical Czech home baked christmas cookies. The one in the center was a special one for me. Because I'm Dutch and I like mushrooms (...) and bicycles.
Prague
The castle Zvíkov has towers with a drop shaped cross section.
Near Zvíkov, the river Otava meets the river Vltava, which is the river that flows through Prague.
A narrow road leads to the gate of castle Zvíkov.
Enjoying the view over the rivers from within the castle walls.
Evina and Honza on top of the Radhošť hill.
Getting into a field covered by a one meter thick layer of soft snow is easier than getting out...

Flat of Evina's parents in Zubří.
With this group of people I participated in a running competion. The conditions were quite different from what I was used to. The traject was only 4 km, but the difference in height between start and finish was 390 meter. And there was about 0,5 meter of snow on the path.
This hotel was the finish of the running competition.
Walking back to the valley along the path which we ran up the day before.
Heavy snowfall created a beautiful landscape.
A wonderful sight of trees, snow, ...and people.
In this chalet we celebrated Sylvester evening. It's located somewhere just across the Czech-Slovak border in the Slovak Republic.
From the main road, the "path" to the chalet was a few hunderd meters long.
Evina, next to what was her working table at the time of my visiting.
Mendel Square in Brno. The castle on the hill is called Špilberk.
