Zamberk...Petr's Hometown

We arrived in Zamberk late Tuesday night.  Had a quick dinner and went to bed around 10 pm Czech time. The kids all slept through the night and seem to have no problems with jet lag.  Wednesday afternoon we went for a walk around town and relaxed at Libor's house.

On our walk we stopped at Petr's Church

On the way up
The bells were stolen by the Germans
at the end of World War II and the
church used borrowed bells until
recently when these new bells were
cast.  The design and writing were
done by Petr's relative, "Uncle" Zdenek.

We wanted to play some doubles ping-pong, but Libor
only had two paddles, so he made two more.
