The Tatras get snow and wind

The weather in the Tatras got worse and worse. The start of the week was foggy, then rain, then wind then snow and wind and a bit more wind. By the time we left the ground was covered in snow and we could not see the mountains, a big change from the 24 degrees and sunny on the first day.

On a rare 6km walk in between villages, a roll of soft fragrant paper and a thick leafy forest always come in handy.

Finally at the train station a bit wet but happy

What a pity it was so wet and cold while you were there. I am sure you managed to have fun though. The scenery still looks lovely esp. the foggy shots.xxx
