UTAH IN SPRING

I love my state.
 Utah's capitol building is fabulous any time of year.
Add cherry blossoms in Spring
 and you have a fabulous sight.
 Bring your camera because you will want to document the enchanting walk through the tunnel of trees.
You can also drive a few blocks to temple square and enjoy colorful tulips 
and other brilliant flowers as you walk around the Salt Lake Temple.
 Spring time in Utah has got the BLOOM BLOOM WOW!
PS My jewelry is from Alex and Ani #obsessed.

DAYS 6 & 7 - MEXICO ADVENTURE

It is the final countdown of our Mexican vacation. We stayed at the resort and dove into the amenities Banyan Tree Mayakoba offers.

 We spent lots of time on the beach during the day.

 Thursday was filled with an archery adventure. 

 Jose helped us keep score and find arrows that might have missed the target.

For dinner, the resort hosted a fancy cocktail night

 full of hors devours, 
mini show with Mayan characters,
 and then a 5 course Mayan dinner.

 We flew out Friday evening.
Before catching our plane, William and I played our first 18 holes of golf.
*We had to have a collared shirt to play so Ivanka and I borrowed some polos from William.*
Big thanks to our Caddy, Miguel.
Flying back to Europe with Condor Business class.

MEXICO - DAY 1

After many different trip ideas, my Czech family and I packed our bags to go to Mexico for a week. I wasn't expecting a tropical visit during my stay so I didn't pack any warm clothing and Ivanka lost a few kilos and didn't want to buy new shorts...
 so we had to get creative.
Extra material meant matching headbands!
We loaded up the car and drove 3 hours to the Munich airport
 to catch our non-stop 12 hour flight to Cancun.
 Thank goodness for business class and the reclining beds.
They also served us fancy food.
 We arrived in Mexico late. The first day was spent at the beach getting to know our villa and used to the time difference.
 We stayed at the Bayan Tree Mayakoba resort. It is fabulously fabulous!



 The resort supplied us with bikes to ride if we didn't want to wait for a golf cart to pick us up to take us around.

Today was a good day.

Kutná Hora

I went to a small town call Kutna Hora. There is a Sedlec Ossuary (Kostnice v Sedlci) or a small Roman Catholic chapel. This place is listed as one of the twelve World Heritage Sites in the Czech Republic.

Inside the church, it is estimated to have between 40,000 and 70,000 skeletons of people, whose bones have been artistically arranged to form decorations and furnishings for the chapel.
 It's not a huge chapel, but all of the bones are kinda interesting.



 There is a giant coat of arms made of bones,
 skull garland lining the place, 
and a giant chandelier in the center that contains at least one of every bone in the human body.


My favorite part was this cool skull on the ground outside of the chapel.
There are other cool buildings in Kutna Hora, but this was my favorite.
