Good Morning everyone 

We are not in Poprad like Mom planned instead we are at a village about a half-hour outside of Poprad, and that's because Mom found this campsite that on their website claimed they had a washing machine. It turned out they didn't but we stayed anyway, because who can resist this kind of view outside your window?

 

Last night we spent in Zakopane which is a big tourist place and is visited by over 2,500,000 tourists a year. In the winter, Zakopane's tourists are interested in winter sports activities such as skiing, snowboarding, ski jumping, snowmobiling, sleigh rides, snowshoe walks, and Ice skating. During the summer, Tourists come to do activities like hiking, climbing, bike, and horse riding on the Tatras mountain, there are many trails in the Tatras. Tourists ride quads and dirt bikes that you can rent. 

 

Popular tourist activity is taking a stroll through the town's most popular street: Krupówki. It is lined with stores, restaurants, carnival rides, and performers. I did NOT like that stroll, too many people and teenagers were making a lot of noise with firecrackers that frighten me horribly. I didn't matter how much Momm tried to comfort me, I do not like that noise.

   


I did meet a very pretty girl though if the circumstances were different we could have had  a lot of fun together


 


This thing didn't react at all to my friendly hello..............so bye bye

 

The entire street was covered with souvenir junk and awesome restaurants. My nose told me this is the place to eat, so we did. The Porkchop was delicious and Mom liked it too. The potato not so much, not even after scooping away all the goo on top

 


This dude is making money by standing still?  I was more interested in seeing how the light pole is crooked and may fall over him 

 

Places like this let out a heavenly scent

     


I peeked in trying to drag Mom along, but she couldn't eat a second meal she said ??

But I can I said

 


Their beer wasn't that great though                     

There are so many gorgeous restaurants it was hard to choose 


       


So many different settings so it's hard to choose, but Mom says we should go to the place with most people because that means they have the best food...........

   

 In  2006 Zakopane and the Polish Olympic Committee put in a bid to host the 2006 Winter Olympics. It was one of six candidates but failed to be short-listed. Turin Italy won

After we ate Mom started to feel sorry for me being so scared so we walked back to Lucy for a quiet night, and I appreciated that.

Regional alcohol? does that mean moonshine?

 



In the morning we continued south and we left Poland and are now in Slovakia and we're back to using Euro which Mom had very little of so we had to find an ATM because very few places take cards here.

So after setting up Lucy Mom decided on an "easy" walk 4km into town..............it wasn't easy at all for either one of us

It LOOKS easy, but let me tell you it was uphill ALL the way and there was a lot of huffing from Mom.

 

We made it and were rewarded not only with an ATM but also the cutest local restaurant with traditional food, And they had good beer.

 

 

The temperature changes a lot here during the day it's around 65 but at night it creeps down below 50 

It's good for sleeping. 

Anyway the views are amazing and we both enjoy this clean mountain air 

   



Today Mom is making it a priority to find a laundry mat or she has to buy new clothes
Wet kisses to yaall

Henry

It hasn't been easy to get Mom to help me with my story, because now Mom got a book that completely mesmerized her. The author is from her puppy town and the story is about a woman's life and struggles to live in Northern Sweden from 1896 to 1985. ...

Ever since we arrived in Mom's puppy town she's been sleeping later and later in the mornings, this morning she didn't get up until 7.30, that's a record. I think she's reminiscing back to her teens? Here I'm running after the ball at the same fiel...
