Velvet Revolution! Nezapomente!

Yesterday was the 20th anniversary of when communism fell here in the czech rep and of course the wife and I got in on some of the action. In true underground fashion, there were student marches, political speeches and rock concerts during the all day celebration. We had a lot of fun being apart of this monumental moment in history and took a few pics while we were at it:

a beautifully warm day to mark the occasion....


they put up some displays in front of the actual stores where people used to have to wait in line for food......crazy
night began to fall...


grabbin some pizza and watchin the big screen all 1984 style....





a huge memorial for those who fought against the curtain....


fuzzy fireworks in the distance....


an amazing pic that really just sums everything up....


some late night czech rock n' roll....
