| Souvenir from Sedlec Ossuary in the Czech Republic |
Some days to recover from the holidays and I should be able to spend some time setting some goals for this years additions to Shingle Creek Manor. We're hoping our readers, fellow bloggers, and fellow haunters had an excellent Christmas and New Years and good fortune follows you throughout 2014.
An exhausting vacation out of my normal element and in strange surroundings always makes me feel re-energized when I return to my home and what I know. The renewed energy and creative feelings makes me optimistic for 2014. I'll share some of our more unusual and macabre discoveries in some future blogs maybe it will inspire or get the creative juices flowing so to speak. We did manage to bring back one unusual souvenir for this years haunt, ironically it didn't even get a raised eyebrow from Customs or TSA officials at the airports. Guess they've seen it all...
Looking forward to reading what everyone is planning and their goal setting for the new year. We hope you will continue to share with us!
LOL, they still come in the same box! :D
ReplyDeleteYep! "Memento mori" - Remember you will die. Authentic looking skull compared to the real ones and I think it was only about $30 American dollars. You were right, what incredible architecture there!
DeleteI was going to ask you if that was a real skull, but I just read in your comment that it's a replica. It's pretty realistic! I was thinking there might be a problem transporting a real skull from one country to the next. I guess the TSA can tell a real skull from a fake one. I was surprised you didn't get any trouble over it too! Do you already have plans for how you'll use your new skull in this year's haunt?
ReplyDeleteHappy 2014 to you too! I look forward to reading more about your trip.
After looking at the real ones, my guess is these were molded from one of them, they had three different versions. No idea what we're doing with it Justine but how can you pass up a skull souvenir?!
DeleteThat is so cool that you can get a souvenir like that! Most places have keychains or t-shirts, you come home with a skull!
ReplyDeleteAlways try to find something different to bring home when we can travel Lisa!
