Czech Rep: that family feeling

These are from our time out in a small country side town in Czech Republic - visiting friends in Rohozna - where there is a small August convention. Our weekend here is a highlight of our trip. Ziva, Wim, Jeff & Debbie, Phyllis & Mervyn, Shanae, and Margie. Amazing to go from really hardly knowing a little group of people...to feeling like they are family. Sitting around the sunken wood fire - sleeping to country silence except for the sound of the fish jumping in the little lake next door - helping with projects - going on walk to the castle nearby - eating amazing homecooked meals - sitting around the table for hours chatting....it hit the spot.
