Karlstein Hrad (Castle)

22 Aug 1991

We went to Karlstein Hrad, one of the castles built be Karel (Charles) IV. We met an old friend of Tomas who he had not seen in 10 years. Her name is Vlasta, but he knew her as (and she asked us to call her) Petula. We had some trouble meeting her at the metro station – although Dan and I recognized her from Tomas’ description, he did not seem to notice her and we figured that he would have said something and so she left without us talking to her. We met up with her at the castle, where she works, and she gave us a tour in English. It was beautiful.
