Mir Castle

Brother and Sister Holmes, Area Welfare Specialist from Moscow, were visiting Belarus to interview the staff of Sofia. On Saturday Sergei took us to visit the castle and summer home of the Radiwill family who were royalty of this country years ago, actually before it was even Belarus but part of Lithuania.

We were going up and down some pretty steep staircases.



Saw some neat artifacts...

And even tried out a few!

Ethan would have loved to see a real life castle. He would be a fan of the stocks too, although he would want to put Lauren inside!

Aren't you glad you didn't really have to be in the stocks! ;)

I'm glad to see Deanna found something to her liking. But what did you do to deserve to be locked up? Looks like an amazing castle.

Looks pretty amazing! Those stairs look very claustrophobic to me.

Deanna, you look good in the stocks. You are seeing some amazing things in Belarus.
