A Spa Day

This is a guest post from Dave. 

We decided to spend another night in Polanica and have a relaxing day without travel. We started with a run around town, then a quick breakfast. By 9am we were getting massages. Pictured below was our morning coffee. 

Jami was intrigued/scared of some signs around with bear footprints on them, so we decided to investigate. It turned out to be just a marker for a hike around town and the nearby hills. We followed the path and were surprised by how nice it was, and how long it was. We also ran across some work horses hauling logs around.

By the time we got back it was time for lunch and a beer. We ended up at a mexican restaurant. We'd noticed them before but hadn't felt adventurous enough to try them until now. I ordered a pig knuckle and Jami a veggie enchilada. My knuckle was good, although didn't resemble any mexican food I've every run across. With horseradish and mustard as accompaniments it was more like a pot roast. Jami's enchilada was less desirable... it had green beans, zucchini, white beans and other strange ingredients and the sauce tasted more asian than mexican, but unfortunately not close enough to either to be good. Also, the tortilla was more of a crepe. I love crepes, but not like this. Thankfully we also ordered a side of fries.

After a pleasant walk back (and some Lodi) Jami retired to the spa and I went on another run on the newly found trails we had found on our walk (I've been itching for some trail running since getting to Poland). After my run I joined Jami in the spa, which of course had a bar. We enjoyed another beer, in a plastic cup for safety of course. Eventually it was time for dinner and more beer. We opted for safe pizza and pasta, but did try some cherry vodka. Unfortunately it tasted like cherry NyQuil.

Highlight of the day: warmer weather, trail running, relaxation
