Second day - Gorzyca - Chycina
May 23, 2008
wake up! (this is in the morning, i didn't notice that somebody has entered my tent for making this pic)
Every one found his own kayak and took the stuff he needed with.
The first part of the route was very similar to the one from last day: nice view, greens, birds singing, river current helped a bit by proceeding forward . Of course there were as always trees in the river which made us some troubles but we could more or less win with the nature.
Then the river became wider and wider, the current/stream became weaker and poorer - this was the sign that we were approaching the lake. And on the lake was it a bit harder, the wind was trying to stop us, the stream was gone and only the power of our muscles (what?) could help us to reach our destination.
Just at the entrance of the lake, there was a wooden bridge, where we made the first stop today, as we used to - it was the 'food stop'. We found some dry wood and made the camp fire in the middle of the forest road. Few minutes after our last man came to this place another group of kayakers came and we had together a meal at the bridge. Jokes, talks, laughing. It's here always so, it doesn't matter if you are kayaking, biking or trekking in the mountains - every one who's making the same thing as you and you meet him on your route - becomes some kind of 'mate' or 'buddy' to you. It's a sort of travellers code:) It's not like you were strangers any more, 'cuz you are making the same - trying to force urself and to win with the nature;)
At this moment we (our groupe) were still all together. Then we got again into our kayaks and sailed away. The tipp was - keep on the left in order to not get lost. But one couple - who fell into the water yesterday - didn't know which is left and which is right (did they became women or so? ;))) so they get lost. Fortunately there was a signal (lucky bastards hahaha) so we could call them and helped to find the right way.
When the man - who was suppose to take our kayaks and us back to our tent village - came, our 'lost sheep' were alreade save with us. Breaking probably all the laws we got into the car (some 21 persons, where there should be at most 8) and we went back.
Some of us went home but some stayed for another one day on camping ground. I'm sure they had another night of fun:)))
