My dad had an errand to run near Roudnice nad Labem, a town about fifty kilometres north of Prague. Since he knows the area well, he took me and my sister to visit some sights along the way.

Easter

Image
I was under the impression that Easter happened quite late this year, since I distinctly remember how cold it used to be when, as children, we used to traverse the neighbourhood asking for eggs and treats. I was, therefore, surprised to learn that April  4 th  is the earliest date Easter has been celebrated since 2018, and that Easter fell on a March date only five times in the last twenty years. I suppose time feels very drawn out during global pandemics.

I cannot remember when the quasi-lockdown was put in place, nor can I remember when it was eased to allow travel within the same district. Confined within this tiny area, I have mostly been thinking about work and the future. I wrote some, researched some, and perhaps most importantly, I made a final decision on my grad school offers. Other than that, these past few weeks have been completely unremarkable, except for spring entering full swing. Below are some of the pictures I took during my many excursions to the forest (and our garden).
