The wonderful Ceske Krumlov, in southern Bohemia.
Heritage Tours staged another folk program with over 35 people from one village in South Bohemia performing. They out numbered our small group of 17 people by over 2 to one ! These are some on the ladies singing village folk songs for us.
Next was the capping ceremony" where the bride exchanges her headpiece for the wedding headpiece.
Part of a traditional wedding dance, all about pivo (beer).
Some of the ladies wore historic kroj ( folk dress ) made of fish scales ( the vest ) these are very rarely seen outside of museums. ( the National Czech and Slovak Museum and Library in Cedar Rapids Iowa, have one of these historic kroj in their collection )

These two young ladies entertained us with Bohemian bagpipe music, at a stop to see a local folk artist.
