Bambiriáda

From the 24th of May to the 26th of May Bambiriáda took place in a lot of cities in Czech Republic and of course in Rychnov too. It was held in the castle and different organisations from Rychnov and from the villages around offered activities for children. As well there was a podium where all the time different dance or music groups preformed. 
We had a small wooden house to ourselves with a table in front of where we offered our different activities. We had a big puzzle of the European map which you had to put together which was not so easy.

Then we offered different things to make: 

- juggling balls 

- bracelets

- recycling beads

-little boxes  

Especially the juggling balls where loved by the children and which made our stall very busy all the time. We just had a break when either the rice or the the balloons ran out and we had to buy new ones. 

All in all it was an activity a bit diffrent to our normal work in OKO but where we had a lot of fun and which we all enjoyed a lot.

Concert in Prague

Last sunday, with Hanka and Alberto, we went to a concert in Prague. We just went from the sunday evening until monday morning with the first train.
The weather was very nice in Rychnov all the weekend, and as well in Prague. It was so nice to walk until the concert, late in the afternoon and it wasn't cold. The concert took place in the music bar called "futurum". We met, there, some others friends. It was such a good concert. Here I posted a video of one of their song. It's a french band but I didn't know it before ;)

Enjoy !
