Longer weekend due to St. Vaclav holiday - we went to Jiserske hory in North Bohemia with bunch of friends and it made a really nice trip
- Staying at Hotel Montanie,Sous-Jizerske Hory
The inexpensive but well-maintained B&B is perfect for families.Cepi enjoyed morning swing at the hotel's playground before heading for breakfast

Smedava resto and penzion looks like one of the favourite warung (hospoda) in the Jizerske hory.With the never-ending queue for lunch there,we were grateful that we brought our own bread,chicken,and spread with us

This swamp forest is known as peat or moors.It can be used for fuel to heat houses and for insulating things
[views: 67/0/0]
Due to its wet and acidic nature, this wetland can only be survived by a little number of insects and plants such as meat-eater flower and it hosts the corpses of trapped animals as well
[views: 57/0/0]
The wooden path was well thought and built to accommodate those who are interested to reach the edge
