GSB - day 15

Prvý naozaj horúci deň, štyrikrát som sa kompletne spotila, to znamená v každom kopci. Rotunda bola highlightom nielen dňa, ale celej trasy, no ja som netušila, kedy presne ma čaká. Magické miesto. Chcela som pokračovať ešte ďalej, do ďalšej útulne, ale zlákalo ma zimné pivko na chate, potom dobrá spoločnosť a pomyslenie na sprchu. Spala som však v stane vedľa. Dobrá partia GSBčkárov, do noci sme kecali hlavne s Jarkom, zaujímavým chlapom, ktorý ručne šije z kože celé interiéry historických áut, a od rána potom aj s ostatnými, čo sa tam zišli. Došla mi hotovosť, tak som sa tvárila, že nie som hladná :) Vôbec netuším, kde nájdem bankomat v tejto divočine a zásoby sa prudko míňajú. Smutno mi za Anetkou. Nemala som koho fotiť, tak som fotila motýle, hady, Ježiša a jeden self portrait. Zažívam veci, ktoré som chcela zažiť s Anetkou - spanie v útulni, pozorovanie svetlušiek, motýľa vidlochvosta. V noci bola poriadna búrka. The first really hot day, I completely sweated four times, meaning on every uphill. The Rotunda was the highlight not only of the day but of the whole route, though I had no idea exactly when I would reach it. A magical place. I wanted to continue further to the next shelter, but a cold beer at the mountain hut tempted me, then good company and the thought of a shower. However, I slept in my tent next door. A great bunch of GSB hikers, we chatted late into the night mostly with Jarek, an interesting guy who hand-stitches entire interiors of historic cars, and from the morning with others who gathered there. I ran out of cash, so I pretended I wasn’t hungry :) I have no idea where I’ll find an ATM in this wilderness and my supplies are running low fast. I miss Anetka. I had no one to photograph, so I took pictures of butterflies, snakes, Jesus, and one self-portrait. I’m experiencing things I wanted to share with Anetka – sleeping in a shelter, watching fireflies, and a swallowtail butterfly. There was a proper storm during the night.
