Swimming complex Kurinec

 Near where we were staying was the swimming complex called Kurinec, Chicken Coop. We finally managed to be visiting while the park was open, so we of course went for a visit. The water in the pool was certainly green since it was spring fed and contained minerals. The girls swam in the pool and played on the small slides while we all waited for the big slides to open. We were having fun despite the life guard giving us a bit of attitude regarding having rashies in the pool. We did the Slovak thing and pretty much ignored him and he let it go.

Visiting with the Drobny's

 We had dinner with the Drobny family in their apartment. We enjoyed a chat with them but it was a bit of a warm evening so we all got a bit hot and tired. It was really good to see everyone though.

Vcielka Maja playground

 We went and saw family in Rimavska Sobota again and after saying hello the girls ran down to play at the playground which is conveniently located next to the apartment block. They really enjoy playing at the park especially since they get to go by themselves. 

Rimavska Sobota cemetery

 We stopped in to look at the graves in Rimavska Sobota on our trip. The weather was perfect and it was really good for Nagymama to visit the grave of her husband and his parents one more time. We cleaned these graves off and put some fresh flowers on them again. The girls went down to the war graves and the willow again. It was a sombre but important visit and Nagymama really appreciated it. 

Zvolen cemetery

 We headed east to Zvolen to visit the cemetery where Nagy's parents are burried. We cleaned the graves, and left some candles and new flowers to show we remember our ancestors. It was a bit tough because it is likely the last time Nagy will visit the graves in person and so she was rightfully sad. The girls energy and helpfulness kept things light though, so it was a very good visit despite the sadness.
