EtnoFun - Swings

We think that these colourful etno swings fit quite well to the August Theme Day:)

EtnoFun [2]

Today we present you etno wooden bushes - each one is unique:)

EtnoFun

When we were walking around the town we found something really interesting - the exhibition of big wooden playground in the Planty park:) This event is called A Malopolska Thing - grounds for cultural experience (Rzecz Małopolska - park doświadczeń kulturowych) organized by Ethnographic Museum from Krakow.

There are unique swings and carousel with funny wooden animals, wooden etno benches and amazing bushes - of course made from the wood. All these things were very interesting so we made a lot of photos which we will show you:)

As you can see in the last photo, the exhibition was fun not only for children but also for adults. We also took the opportunity and went to swing:)

Saint Roch

This is one of the churches in Nowy Sacz - church of Saint Roch. Just next to these sweet tiny building is the new, modern church.

The Festival of the Children of Mountains

The Festival of the Children of Mountains this year started July 18th and lasted to July 25th. Unfortunately we don't have enough time to watch shows but we participated in march-past through Lwowska Street toward the town square.

In the first photo you can see children from Bulgaria, in the second one - children coming from Romania.

More photos of that festival (from last year) you can see here.

This year the weather in Poland is crazy. A week ago there was the flood. Now, from several days we have a heatwave. In Nowy Sacz the temperatura is about 35 °C (in the shade of course, in the sun it can be almost 50 °C).

In the photo there is the hot and sun-scorched Nowy Sacz's townhall:)

In the centre of one of buildings of this school there is a beautiful big tree (you can see it in the background). We will show it when it will start blooming:)

Goodbye to the winter

Today is the first day of the spring. By this photo we want to definitively say goodbye to the winter.

Half beautiful, half ugly...

... it is the best metafory concerning March this year:) After a cloudy days, full of dirty snow, there is the time for sun and growing grass:)

White ground, white tree

The winter is still in Nowy Sacz, even the tree became white:) The view from Roszkowice hill.
