This year, in Tatra mountains, we don't climb high peaks, but rather stuck to the valleys enjoying the beauty of swift flowing streams and watching the sunlight playing in the trees.

Kościeliska Valley


Lodowe Źródło (= Icy spring) The water realy cold, even in the hot of the day. First I take your picture, than you mine.

Pisana Hala
Looking at the water down below.

"Pawlikowski's Window" in the Mylna Cave.
How bright it is outside!


"Zbójnicka" shrine It's time to give our legs a rest!

Valley of Gąsienicowe Lakes

	"Small is beautiful" - this words give justice to this diminutive pond.
How beautiful is this little brook!
	It seems we wont't be climbing the Karb pass - I prefer to gorge myself on blueberries at last.
We were here two years ago, at the very summit.

Jaworzynka Miętusia

Beautiful is Giewont!
Beautiful are Czerwone Wierchy! (= Red Peaks)
They would be most beautiful if watched from the nearby culmination.
But TPN rerouted the trail to go around it.
Villains!

Ku Dziurze

	Where am I? What am I doing? What I am holding is not a microphone but a torch, and I am not on a stage but in the deep recesse of "Dziura" (= The Hole) Cave. The white spot above my head is not a butterfiy but the distant opening of the cave.
I can take big steps too, as long as going downhill.
	How beautiful is the water flawing down this rock!

Lejowa Valley


On Kominiarski Przyslop pass

Once upon a time, flocks of sheep would graze here,
fires would burn in shepherds' chalets,
the shepherds' elder would offer a drink of shhep's whey.
Today everything is empty, quiet, one feels nostalgia for the past.

Montains, stream, forest - and I will be doing a cross-word.
