Krakow, Poland (Dunajec River Gorge)

July 19, 2009 (Sunday)

The excursion day!!
It's unbelievable. why rain drops rather than sun shine?
It was too heavy rain and very cold (about 15 degrees of C) today.
Actually, the tour guide said to us "well, I don't think we can do a rafting today 'cause of rain..." .. So, many of people were disappointed after hearing that news.

During the time our trip to Dunajec river, it doesn't look like to be a sunny day. We have stopped by an old wooden church. The guide said that the history of that church is about 150 years old or more. It was amazing to me.

I think the road where our bus was drove on is too high 'cause I felt a strong headache as I did in the airplane. So, I just slept.... Actually, it's too stupid since there are plenty of landscapes to look at.  Anyway, I missed most of them because of the crazy headache.

At the time when are almost arrived at our destination, the guide said "I think we have to change our schedule from rafting to having a lunch together".. However, one people who really wanted to do a rafting suggested that "Oh,, we want to do a rafting even though the rain will not be stopped."  So, the guide made a vote whether other people want to do a rafting or a lunch.   Guess the result?     Many of people's mind was headed for a rafting.

So.... We took a boat and enjoyed a rafting for about 2 hours. It was quite long journey. The interesting thing is that DUNAJEC RIVER acts as a border between two conutries; Poland and Slovakia.
