Farmer's Market, Easter Market, VR

The Tokyo Bakery had an event again on Saturday and I made a mistake with my lesson time, so Leoš had to go on his own and get some things I wanted.  After he came back we made our way to the farmer's market and I was able to get pesto bread from my favorite stand.  We walked around and saw the beautiful blossoms again.  Then we went to Old Town Square to check out the Easter Market.  It had the usual stands, so we didn't get anything.  On Sunday we walked towards the castle so I could see it with the blossoms.  Then we went to a VR experience a film festival was having.  It was really cool to attend.

Spring

Spring is in the air and the trees are starting to bloom. I had to take photos of the beautiful trees and the flowers that were blossoming.  The park smelled amazing!!!

Boat Day Turned into Food Festival

I saw an advertisement for Vltava Day and was excited to enjoy the day, like I did in 2019.  I organized an event with some ladies expecting to go on a free boat ride, just like I did a few years prior.  Last minute, I looked at the web page for the event and it mentioned something about reservations.  I didn't think it would be necessary because I didn't need to do it the last time I enjoyed the event.  However, I made a mistake this year, it was needed.  I met a few ladies and walked to the waterfront.  It was a bit difficult to find the area, but then I remembered where it was the last time.  Unfortunately, we couldn't get on any boats without a reservation.  Luckily, there was a food festival in Karlin, so we decided to go there.  However, I took a quick detour to a museum that had free entry for Vltava Day.  Then I joined the others at the food festival.  A few needed to leave, but the others joined me for a walk.  We went to an "interesting" cafe, then another cafe and finished the day off at an Easter Market.  In the end it was 7 hours.  It was a great day!  One day we will go on a boat ride!!
