what a great weekend with old classmates in the beautiful pieniny mountains at the slovak-polish border dominated by the mountain tri koruny = trzy korony = three crowns. btw, pieniny is the oldest polish national park founded in 1932.
even when my wife was not my class mate, she joined me at the trip, so we have had some family quality time there es well 😄. she enjoyed to see her native poland and also really liked the way how my classmates have comunicated to each other. at least at breakfasts and dinners, which she always joined ... and yes, polish & slovak are similar languages and both nations live in a good neighborhood, so she could also understand almost everything & speak to all of us ...

btw, the area around dunajec river is famous for its semi-traditional raft boats [floß + flößer (DE), plt + pltnici (SK), tratwa + flisacy (PL)] and dunajec (beside poprad river) is one of only two slovak rivers which do not enter the black sea via danube (=dunaj) river but the baltics via wisla river, you know?
