Our program will consist of:

In the middle of our trip we would hold a small master-class on the thoughtless meditation technique that gives the state that is quite easy to achieve while being proved to be very beneficial for the inner personality ballance, health and general wellness, elements of which has been successfully used by our colleagues in Microsoft, HP, Shell, Europarliament, etc...
3. Visiting of the one of the most famous castles in Czech Republic - Český Šternberk
About everything in detail:
CANOE TRIP: for the chosen part of Sazava there is no need nor for experience neither for big muscules to manage the tour. The flow here is generally calm and that is why it is possible to take even children (from my personal experience - from 3 years old). The distance is 13 km, the current that generally has the speed of a walking pace will help you to make the distance without strain, we will make a number of minor stops on the way.
So-called 3-place canoe can take in fact three grown-ups and one bigger child or two small. Two-place canoe can take two grown-ups and the same like in three-place canoe - 1-2 children. All the possibilities about the boat range and price you can find here: http://www.pujcovna-lodi(.)cz/pujcovna-lodi-sazava-cenik (please, pay attention that 20% "out-of-season" discount will be possible to apply). ATTENTION: every participant is responcible to make his/her canoe reservation individually in advance. It is possible to do for you the group reservation. The most of the Samba pujčovna (our canoe provider) personnel speaks English. You can book your canoe by phone or e-mail indicated on the mentioned above web-site.
MEDITATION MASTER-CLASS: maximum what you will need - is something to sit on on the ground, no experience is requred. The time for the practicum is around 30 min, including explanation part.
ČESKÝ ŠTERNBERK CASTLE VISIT: the entrance fee if 125 Kc for the adults, 85 for the students and 65 for the children. The last excursion starts at 16.15, if our stops will be too long, by our estimations we should be nicely on time for it.
REGISTRATION: please, sign-in your name and contacts into this online spreadsheet: https://docs.google.com/…/1YaLX80nU3NEaDLqJoNUnV3JRSI…/edit…. It by some reason you could not open the document, please, send me an e-mail with the message title "Sazava, name & surname". Once again, the canoes should be booked individually for you and those coming with you. This table will only serve for your convenience in case you would want to share the place in your canoe or will be looking for the one or to connect with those who will have free places in their can and would want to help with the delivery to the place of others/will share fuel costs. For me as organizer - to have your contacts in case you will be late or some changes in the organizational process of the trip. That is why it is appriciatable if all the names of those who come will be listed there.

FAQs:
What else would you recommend to take with you?
- Better to have shoes that will be keeping on the leg well both in the canoe and in the water in case you would need to go there, like in case the canue will stuck at the shallw place (the water should not yet be very cold:)
- at least one more set of the clothes for the boat (there is but a small possibility to appear in the water... but really very small:) The water is shellow at this part and rarely achieves the waist. The children and those grown ups who want will receive the floating-vests.
- some water and drincs enough for the whole day
- hat as well as the rain coat for the case of the forecast will worthen before the trip (please, see the forecast not earlier 2 days from the date of the trip for its accuracy).
What is the experience of the organizer?)
- 5 trips like this, including experice of this particular segment of Sazava.
