We thoroughly enjoyed our visit with PJ & Bronwyn. Unfortunately they departed on Sunday and we miss them already.
Their visit was a flurry of activity. Highlights included a visit to the brewery near Strahovsky Klaster Monastery (for their special fall brew), a day trip to the town of Kutna Hora, and hosting them as our first dinner guests in the apartment (although we didn't cook - we picked up pizza; full disclosure).
Molly and I are now heading stateside for the next week to take care of a few things. I'll continue here with much more when we get back. Until then here are some photos from PJ&B's visit.

Kutna Hora is home of the Sedlec Bone Church. Its walls and ceiling are decorated with the bones of 40,000 people from the middle ages. One of the oddest things we've ever seen.
There's more to Kutna Hora than the bone church. It's a nice little town with a big cathedral (boneless), several squares, and great views. We also enjoyed some of the local brew, black for the boys and light for the ladies, at Pivnice Dacicky ('Piv-neet-say Dach-itsky'). With the beer we ate a traditional Czech lunch of smoked meats, dumplings, and gravy. Then we took a nap.
Hanging in our apartment on Saturday night.
