Friday 14 May 2015. Chrewt-Polana to Chmiel. Late afternoon.

After 25 kilometers and more than seven hours of walking the dogs were a bit weary. Here they wait for another two or three raisins or cashew nuts. They did not need much...   
 
At last, River San. Separating two bear and wolf areas. 


Springtime sparkling. Cherry trees. Almond trees. Apple trees. Like fireworks in the green.


 
At the end of the day I was worried that the dogs would tread on the tar from the on-going roadwork. Plate sized spots all over the road. We had to zigzag...

 
Finally, we reached Chmiel and my Agroturystyka for the night. Since the dogs did not volunteer to return they were simply tied to the owner's iron fence. They did not object. Four hours later a woman came and fetched the dogs bringingand them back to the vicarage in Polana. The priest was said to be elsewhere all evening...

 
In this area, south of Ustrzyki Dolne, and at this time of the year, tourism is not yet there and accommodation of any kind, hotel or agro, was hard to find. The previous night in Polane I was denied paying for the dinner (delicious soup and chicken), for the room, for the breakfast - it is "gratis", they said. Thank you, Babicia and family Pietrowicz!

Now, in Chmiel, the situation is again normal in this respect. For dinner (delicious soup and dumplings), for room, for breakfast I paid 100 zloty.
 
 
The fire I was allowed to make in the evening from birch and beech wood was a true





 
The breakfast. The big jar is not with applesauce but  ...HONEY! :)

 
Excellent treatment. Thanks Macjul and Josefa! 

 
Bye, bye, my dear doggy friends!
