TERMAL POOLS in Poland
A few of you wanted to see what the pools were like in the new "water park" in Poland. Here is the address for Baseny Termalne (termal pools) in Bukowina Tatrzanska:
http://www.termabukowina.pl/baseny-termalne.html
There are 9 pools, temps up to 94 degrees, I think. All very modern as you see, located out in the country by the ledge shown in one of the posts, and all high tech. One of the pools had roller beds under water - if you could get on them there was a place to lay your head and just relax in the warm water while the rollers relaxed your muscles. I don't think U.S. has anything quite like it.
One of the nice features of the facility was the buzzer system. Every minute or predetermined time a buzzer went off in the most crowded pools and everyone had to move over one spot. No one could "hog" the roller beds or water jets, etc. It was all very well organized, clean and user friendly. I haven't swam in an outdoor/indoor pool in the snow in a long time - a very relaxing and fun thing to do again.

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.
Narges got up within touching distance to this fawn.
She didn't use a close up lens to take photo.

A little extra charm
A traditional Polish wedding blocked traffic for quite awhile so Narges and I jumped out of the car and took photos - she took this one (see me in the background!).
