We decided to take the bus to a resort style town called Zakapone at the base of the Tatras mountains in Poland. The town is known for turn of the century wooden chalets, outdoor activities and excellent skiing slopes.

The bus ride to Zakapone was through the countryside and took about 2 hours. We enjoyed looking at the scenery along the way, which reminded us a bit like Canada.

As we got closer to Zakapone, the landscape became more mountainous and lush green.

We arrived at the Zakapone Bus station and then took a taxi to our hotel. After getting settled in we went to a restaurant called Watra to meet up with our friends.

This was a traditional polish restaurant with some unique features. There was an open flame grill, with baked potatoes cooking.

There were homemade polish sausages hanging from the ceiling.

We walked around the restaurant and checked it out before seating down to eat.

The tables had real sheep skin on the seats.

There was also a micro brewery in the restaurant.

It made for an interesting meeting point for lunch.  We enjoyed a great meal and planned our next adventure.
