Like, super cool.

Bunnies anyone?

Can we go now? I'm bored.

The bridge to tomorrow.

How NOT to be a patient father while at the park.

One fine Saturday morning, we took the train east for an hour to the town of Kutna Hora, made famous centuries ago for its silver (mines), mint, cathedral, and of course, the infamous bone church.

Just a hop, skip and a jump from the Kutna Hora train station is the infamous Kostnice Ossuary. This from wikipedia: "In 1278, Henry, the abbot of Sedlec was sent to the Holy Land. On returning, he brought soil from Golgotha and sprinkled it on the ground here. As a consequence, the burial ground was considered holy and became extremely popular. In 1511 a chapel was constructed to house the bones from [abandoned] graves. The chapel is open to the public, and contains the bones of about 40000 people".

The cemetary surrounding the ossuary had that Midnight in the Garden of Good & Evil feel.

Just down the road from the ossuary is the the former church of the Virgin Mary. The site has had a few churches on it over the centuries. This one was rebuilt by Giovanni Santini in Baroque Gothic style around 1700. The interior architecture is amazing.

Another dead saint. So mid-13th century.

Hello? Echo? Anybody there?

Totally goth!! Construction on the beautiful St. Barbara cathedral started in 1388, and was interrupted several times, but was finally completed after more than 500 years of building, in 1905.

A little ice cream before calling it a day and sprinting for the last bus back to the train station.

"Lolo under glass" mugging for the camera while traveling home on the train from Kutna Hora.

My long-lost buddy from SLC, Carl, and his trusty side-kick, Rachel, stopped by for a few days during their 3-week tour of Germany, Austria, and Czech Republic. It was great fun having them in town and showing them why we love Prague so much. Friends like them make me miss Utah a little bit.
