He's in bed at the hotel. We were going to do some walking around here as it's the second most beautiful Czech city, after Prague. I'm unsure if we will need to cancel our upcoming house visit appointments. We might feel stranded, in a sense, as I am unable to do the necessary driving home.

Yesterday we saw the first house on our list. The owner did something unique by welcoming us with a platter of vdolky (pictured), which are basically fried donuts with fruit jam, farmer's cheese, and whipped cream on top. Also fresh mint iced tea from mint in her garden. So sweet of her, but I confess it makes you feel uncomfortably obliged.

Ugggh, I'm sorry he's sick again!

Well, try not to feel obliged...I know that feeling for sure, but it's just how most Europeans function. They offer; if you accept, great - but if not, eh. On to the next pursuit.

The vdolky look so darn tasty - and mint tea sounds divine.
