We started a trip to Slovakia mountains, but due to various delays and bad

and colorful fall forests.

Since our boys are finally getting age when they are able to walk, we decided
to try some mountains. Advertised for few weeks, Dan (age 5) was looking forward
and Honza (age 3) tolerated the intent. There is nice area in Jeseniky mountains,
so we went some 9 kilometers along the ridge. Turned out well, so next time we
can try something more difficult with them.

much more springy.

Happy sun was shining on the sunday. It was good time to go out to stretch old
