Sylvester in Slovensky Kras: fun in snow 101

---

My friend Milka was very kind in inviting me with her friends to a village in the Slovensky Kras national park for new years. It was a spectacular time with wonderful people! During New Year's Eve the wine, Hungarian cherry liquor, and champagne flowed merrily down the old gulliver. And even a village with maybe 100 people had fireworks!!
The following day we got over our headaches and spent the afternoon in the hills. We brought a sled which was the key to our joy out there. We happened upon some dried, thick vines which we used in creative ways: limbo, tug of war and Tarzan activities. Then we carried a 10m strip of it up a hill which we used to collectively carry the lucky rider on the sled!! To je proste zabava, vis? Later we did some extreme sleding and had a competition for who could slide across the ice the most elegantly. I won't forget the times there soon. I hope to see you all again some day! Chris
