Postcard from Cesky Krumlov
Even in the rain Cesny Krumlov is beautiful, but in the cold rain, the sightseeing loses some of its appeal.
And for our only day in this Bohemian village the rain was cold and whipped by a near-freezing wind. But we persevered. Through the twisting streets to the art museum. Down the hill to the marionette museum. Up the hill to the palace gardens. And, finally, gratefully, through a small courtyard to the warmth and sweet aromas of a Chinese tea house, aptly named “Good T Room.”
Comfortable chairs surrounded glass-topped tables based on tea crates. Candles glowed throughout the room. And the tea descriptions were enchanting. “A tea to drink while reading a Russian novel.” “The perfect tea for interrupting contemplation. ” And the tea J. thought most appropriate: “Suitable to drink on the first snowy day.”

I think I would pick “a tea to drink while reading a Russian novel.”
I love making little discoveries like this.
