In the afternoon we made postal cards with the project logo to send them to our parents. After that we visited a second museum where there is a lot of historical items. We learnt to prepare traditional food, «pirohy», made with sheep cheese, salt, potatoes, onion and chopped bacon. Then we wore traditional Slovak clothes, took polaroid photos and danced.
In the evening we went back to the houses of our Slovak friends and had dinner.
A day on the farm !
We arrived with the bus in Vychodna early in the morning. We started to visit the farm in the building where farmers deal with the seeds. We put
on the outfits that people wear to work on the farm. Then we went to see the calves that were in separate enclosures from their mothers. Then we went to have lunch because the visit on the farm lasted all morning. After we were separated in groups for some works : cleaning the cowshed, spreading hay, removing manure, cleaning the calves boxes, working in the seeds area...
After buying some souvenirs, we got on on the bus to go to Stary Smokovec in the mountains. We had dinner in a restaurant and then we went night sledging ! We had fun for two hours before leaving for Liptovsky Mikulas and we arrived at the hotel at about 10.00 pm.
