We headed out this morning on a northeasterly route via 2 lane roads and little farm roads. For lunch we stopped at a KFC and it was pretty good. There was lots of truck traffic on these 2 lane roads. At one construction stoppage Angela counted over 20 waiting to get through.
We had to be at the Hotýlek Na Výšince by 2pm and we made it with minutes to spare. After we unpacked we walked to downtown and found the tourist information office where a very helpful fellow helped orient us to the city and the area. First we visited a garnet exhibit (this is a big industry in this region) and then we walked around noting various memorials and churches and found the Jewish synagogue which was not destroyed in WWII. There was even a cafe called the Turnoff Cafe (a play on words).
After dinner at a Vietnamese restaurant, we watched the Portugal-Iran World Cup soccer match and enjoyed some microwave popcorn before retiring for the night. The room is one of the largest we've ever had and is quite cheery in decor. The comforters were a bit small, however. Tomorrow we gave an interesting day planned in the local area.
