The Motherland

My sister suggested that we travel to Prague in 2018. My mother and her sister joined us. Our trip happened to coincide with the 100-year anniversary of our Czech family establishing a homestead in the U.S.

Chateau Mcely

In the late afternoon we arrived at Chateau Mcely where we stayed for the next two nights. The place changed hands many times since it was first built in 1653. In 2004 it was renovated, opening as Chateau Mcely in 2006. The designers (Inéz and James Cusumano) did an incredible job and it's totally luxurious.

It was like an alternate reality and we were princesses arriving home (on our two-wheeled carriages).
