This time we went through Bratislava, Slovakia then to Brno, Czech Republic. 3 counties in a couple of hours.
We arrived early and found an English speaking clerk who briefed us on the archive rules and search procedures. We started and almost right away found new and verified critical information. We were able to photograph hundreds of records....we collected an amazing amount of information.,,,,,8 hours later we dragged ourselves away.
We drove to Svitavy where we went to the hotel we stayed at a week ago.....a good room.....a grat dinner........a beer on the patio and we turned in early.
Tuesday we attacked the archive in Zansrk....a castle with no visible road to the front door. We knew were it was and the GPS could not get us to the front door. Google Earth to the rescue. We plotted out way there and again found a clerk who could speak some English and German. Again the data just started to roll in.
