Cooking Club Potluck

It had been some time since I organized a potluck event. We finally picked a day to have the potluck, had a venue and invited as many people as we could.  The weather wasn't the best and people had been getting sick, so we didn't have such a big turn out.  We still got to enjoy nice food and hang out with nice people.  It was a pleasant Saturday afternoon.

Zamek Inare

Since I went to bed quite early the night before, I was quite fresh the next day. I was a bit hungry so I walked around to find some food.  I heard plates so I went towards the sounds.  Luckily, I saw the bride so I knew I was in the right place.  I couldn't believe all the food they had out for us considering how much food was probably left over from the night before.  After breakfast I walked around the chateau to look at the different rooms. It was so nice to go at my own speed and not have to worry about other tourists.  The only other people in the chateau were the other guests from the wedding.  We didn't stay too long because Leos had an ice hockey game later in the evening.  It was such a nice weekend in the chateau.  And even better that the floods didn't affect our plans at all!

Bara and Tomas's wedding

Just a few days after arriving back from Japan, Leos and I attended a wedding for his friend Tomas.  It took place at a beautiful chateau.  Even though there were floods in the rest of Czech Republic, the couple was lucky enough that it didn't affect their wedding plans.  The location was beautiful and they had a very nice ceremony.  The food was quite good as well. We got to explore around the chateau because they had rented the whole place out! We even spent the night there. I can't believe I can say that I spent the night in a chateau! After dinner, the party started.  However, since I still had jetlag from our very recent trip, I had to call it early.  I was just too tired and still on Japan time.  It was a lovely day.
