Town Has Strange Records

28-07-2021 15:00

The small town of Pelhrimov in the Czech Republic holds thousands of strange records and hosted a festival to show them off. Some of the records were racing with folding ladders and folding pink scarves.

The president of the festival said that he was happy to have people come and understand the ‘essence’ of what the people in this town do. He wants to show that life is more than being on Facebook or sitting at a computer. It is good to do something!
Who knows what wacky record will be next for the town?

Difficult words: essence (the most basic and important part of something), wacky (strange).
