| Morning | Southern Moravia - part of the Czech Republic where wine cellars are inherent parts of the landscape, where limestone ruins of medieval castles dwarf above mixed forests interlaced with dreamy rivers, where leaves of vineyards flutter in afternoon breeze, and where people still can sing. Offered program: We finish in Lednice, right in one of the most beautiful Moravian parks surrounding a neo-gothic Castle and take an easy walk to a place where we pick up bicycles. |
| Lunch | Light bicycle orienteering in the pine forest spreading between the towns Lednice and Valtice, throughout which charming buildings originally serving as hunting lodges are scattered. "How Grandpa Traded a Bottle of Wine for a Train" - a group walk with a little trading game in Vestonice, a village at the foots of Pálava - a significant limestone ridge looming over the wine country. A scenic walk to the top of the crags, ending with a visit to a wine cellar. A lecture on wines, wine tasting. Moravian cimbalom folk music. |
| Dinner | Social evening, bus back to Baldovec |
| Friday 30.4.2004 | |
| Morning | Options

You can arrive either on Tuesday or on Wednesday. We prefer Tuesday, so you can have a rest over night after the travel and can participate in the whole program the next day. However, it is possible to arrive during Wednesday and join the program in progress.
The Wednesday program remains open. We would stay around the venue (easy to be reached by those coming later) playing and organizing interesting games and activities. The countryside around is tremendous and during the games we would touch every part of it (deep forests, river, grass fields, climbing tower, ropes course...). Do not worry - it will not be physically challenging... you know what you write to participants of your programs, don´t you? Do you remember the last time anyone organized a program for you? Don´t just think of it too hard and come! If you want to bring your own game (and we ask you to do it) feel free to tell us. Possibilities are unlimited!
We will travel on Thursday so it is not a good idea to arrive on that day. We will be returning back to Baldovec late at night, cheered up by a couple of glasses of different wines. Of course you can arrive, but you will miss that part of the program.
Friday is comprised of options. We will decide according to your interest. We can divide into more groups.
The pre-conference will run with any number of participants. It is an offer for you to get the most out of your stay in the Czech Republic.
