Oh there's Gnomes too (Wrocław part 1)

Something come in high and lows, we try to put a handle on these things though the most influential
ones come as surprises. I was looking forward to meeting with Szilvi again, and what was a few days became a week, what was not meant to be happened. For those that say not to fall in love travelling, it is sometimes wise advice. Though beautiful witty women will always intrigue, mix that with a sweet disposition and good chemistry it is a potent combination that might make it very difficult for me to walk away from.
We spent our evenings ice skating, or quiet drinks with Szilvi's work collogues, and walking around in the crisp night to the beautiful lit up buildings of Wrocław. I don't know what it is with the Hungarian eyes, but there is a wonderful opening quality that is so temping to fall into I admit I did a little. It was something neither of us intended, but involve emotions happened, so we resolved to embody a mind state, and knowing it would not last, but to have it for what it is for a while.


When Szilvi went to work in the day, I would procrastinate till I finally made head way on my blog. Wander round the city, throwing some hammers down on the concrete wonderland designs of the metropolitan area. There are a few art instillation that can be found, one project that spans city are the Wrocław gnomes that come up in all kinds locations, but I always kept my eyes open for these little fella's each one a laugh and photographed.


On the weekend we went to Mt Ślęża. It was peaceful to get out of the city. Autumn leaves covered the ground the bear trees against the clear blue sky wind rustling the twigs and branches. We wound our way up the amber flour covering the slippery rocks below. The sent of burning wood grow stronger as we reached the top, many fires were there to great us with warmth as we reached the pinnacle, where groups of people cooked there lunch over and open flame. An abbey standing in the clearing looking out across the the lands lying below. A tower could be climbed near off where we had our lunch, the wind grows strong as we took the exposed ladders up, but the cold was not to deter. The view absolutely spectacular, adrenalin rushing as wind threatened to throw any article of loose clothing down the hill. We made our way down and returned back into town.


It was that night I had decided on leaving Wrocław for a while. Holding each other till the last possible moment. Lingering on that kiss till the moment I had to board my bus.
