Today we woke up to snow showers it was coming down pretty hard up until lunch time. John and I decide we would spend most of our day at the Spilberk Castle. Its huge and sits on top of a steep hill. The castle was built in the mid 13th century by King Premysl Otakar II.

It was good exercise for us to climb up the hill and it was not easy with 8 inches of snow. We walked around and saw the city from different views. The castle is closed during the winter time so we couldnt go in and see the museum. After taking in all of the beautiful views we played in the snow and had a snowball fight.

Afterwards we went and visited the chocolate shop again cause it so good and I love chocolate. For dinner we ate Chinese food. It was pretty good its not as greasy like back home. We ate gelati again its so good and low in fat so thats a plus.

That was pretty much our day filled with lots of walking and climbing, will see what tomorrow brings.
