karlstejn

friday night got invited to a party in karlstejn castle. castle. you read it correctly. seems like a czech girl that a buddy has been dating - her dad is the caretaker of the castle. they live there. so they invited a few of us and we had a party and got to stay in the castle. it may have been one of the coolest things i have gotten to do since i have been here. we got to go all around the place and do pretty much as we liked. the places that usually arent open to the public and all! the weekend weather was perfect - it snowed loads and made the castle look that much more amazing. it is like something you see out of a fairly tale. exactly - and the town surrounding the castle is so nice and picturesque. so with a nice coat of snow and the castle - it realy looks like something out of a movie. we had a great time having snowball fights from the castle walls and running around generally like idiots. i cant lie - there were several times that i imagined myself being a knight - only using snowballs instead of other weaponry! i took loads of pictures - which once again hopefully will ba able to go up after christmas sometime. not to make anyone jealous or anything...
