A Mountain Lodge Holiday

When you go on vacation for a month, you can't just sit in the condo and read!  You go places, do things - or so my friend, Narges says.  And a nice trip to the mountains is just what is needed to get away from the big town of Bielska-Biala. So, in an hour and a half or so ride we were able to enjoy some lovely countryside:

                         Our rooms were on the third floor!  There is a really good story to go with this photo...

                                 After a five mile horse cart ride and a mile walk, this was the view.
                                                    View from the front yard of the lodge.
                                                          The lake was at the top





This was the restaurant at the top.  Good thing - we had to prepare for the 7 mile walk down to the car!

                                          Another view from lodge
                                           Sheep were by the road near lodge.
                                         Lots of people walked the full 6 miles up to the top - some with babies, toddlers. Lots of walking going on in Poland.  We took the cart in the background.
    Souvenirs
Narges got up within touching distance to this fawn.
 She didn't use a close up lens to take photo.
