Dragonfly Sashikoed

Sashiko, at least, seems to go fast. All the dragonflies are done and ready to be made into a pillow or a tote bag. I haven't decided which.

 

Brno's Castle

We walked up the hillside to Spilberk Castle on a cold winter day in Brno. The castle has a great view of the surrounds, of course, and has a modern art museum inside - something that seems common in castles in central Europe. There was also a part about the history of the castle. And there were puppies and Christmas decorations.

 

Buildings With Clocks

A cold, clear December day with lots of clocks and buildings to look at.

 

Lebanese in Warsaw

Andreas took his parents here when they went to the zoo. I had something else that needed to be done. Still haven't been to Le Cedre, but would like to go.

 

Brno By Day

It looks a bit more generic during the day in Brno. Still lovely.

 

Forgotten Meal in Czechia

Yes, some things are getting old enough that I don't remember what they were. It looks like it tasted decent, at least. And it was in Brno.

 

Starting the Alphabet

Beginning the alphabet in the middle while still working on the border.

 

Warm Food on a Cold Day

We found a very good Asian restaurant while at the Christmas Market in Brno. It was on the main square. Food was fresh and hot and good.

 

Brno Christmas Lights

Pretty tree and ferris wheel in Brno. Crowded around the tree, though. The market was broken up around the old town, with penny packets of booths in different squares.

 

Brno Market Crowd

The crowd in Brno last year was huge. Part of it was because there was a Battle of Austerlitz re-enactment going on plus a youth hockey tournament. I'm sure a few were just tourists like us, too.

 

Quilt Show in Brno

In Brno center, on our way to the Christmas Market, we stumbled on a quilt show. Of course we went in. There were some fantastic quilts, including one made by a Czech astronaut. She quilted part of it in space. It looks like the view from the portholes. This is a very active quilt club. I wish I had one close here in Warsaw.

 

Brno

We stopped in Brno to go to Christmas markets on our way to Prague. Brno is a very pretty little town.

My boys looking cute while resting.
