Poľana 28 may 2005
Saturday it was and May 28th was written on that day`s pages. We met, I wonder, where we`d arranged, namely bus station in Zvolen.
Me, Miro The Writing, Phero The Broadshouldered, Mathew The Bright, Mathew The Other, Ive The Eversmiling and...
Some purchases at the blatant store Lidl and some peculiar problems: " You can`t take this! It`s being sold in whole packets only YOU BEGGARS!
Anyway, we caught the bus. Where to? Of course, to the town of Hrinova or "Cowtown". We were right about to undertake an ascend up on the most
regardful mountain of the wide region - Polana. Even nine-year old member of our expedition - Tanya or "Little Ive".
The weather: pretty fine, sometimes sunny, at times less.
The journey: Cowtown - The Dam of Hriňová - The Hotel Poľana (about 14 kms) - a climb up to the summit - a short sojourn
(in Phero´s opinion without any view, a tiny fancy was necessary, however), a track via Bystré fall and a barbecue stay above it.
A returning way through a dense forest and the come-back to Cowtown from the west side. The sum - such 35 kms in our boots.
Oh, I can´t omit the refreshing stop at the On-the-top Hotel, which was elongated, some way, from inevitable 5 mins to an one-hour
stay and the cultural performance of the residentials named "Breaking down The May" with all related - music, dance...
