| WTOC model event in a local park. 8 controls plus one timed control. I totally blew the timed control by stupidly switching clearings and thickets in my mind. Missed one other on the course. It was very tricky controls. Subtle features and controls very close to one another. Lots of mapped trees to use for lining up the controls to choose the right one, but also unmapped trees, so you had to be careful of which trees were which. |

| Travel day to Olomouc. We picked up Cathy Yekenevicz in Prague and then drove. Highlight of the day was lunch at Restaurant Valerio in Brno. We were just looking for something close to our road and Karen found this on the GPS. It was very hidden in a residential area at a dead end, but was excellent food. A four-star restaurant for sure. The waiters wore white gloves and the food was served elegantly. Undoubtedly, the highest class dining experience Ive ever had. We were hopelessly underdressed, mostly wearing orienteering related T-shirts. Its a good thing the place was virtually empty at the time we were there. |

| More touring in Prague. First went with David and Karen to find a few more caches in the Old Town. Then I climbed the clock tower, walked across the Charles Bridge, and did some additional touring at the castle. Ended the day with a Black Light Theater show and a long walk down the Vltava river to the Vysehrad area. Lots of walking today, but I dont really know how much to log it as. |

| Travel day to Prague. Nice loooong flight from LAX to Frankfurt, than a short hop to Prague. Lastly, a fun airport shuttle ride through the city. I was the last one in my shuttle to get dropped off and had fun following where I was on the map as the driver used all the back roads to get where he was going. |
