June 27.2018 at 19.00 - departure from Poltava.

2.07 from 7.00 to 10.00 arrival in Poltava (approximately)

They have long wanted to see Lviv and the mountains, and now the idiot's dream has finally come true!

And we decided on a test trip to Ukraine, and then maybe a bus Eurotour.

And it all started simply, my Wolf said on holidays 4 days not to eat my brain-come up with something interesting, suitable deaf village with an overnight stay, the main thing is pure nature, or Bulgaria, Egypt for 5 days, do not offer Turkey! . Looking at the prices for tours to Egypt and Bulgaria for the weekend - I realized that this is not in our pocket now)) And it occurs to me to monitor the prices for western Ukraine with departure from his native Poltava. I call all the agencies, the answer is that there are one seats left in the bus, but we will try to persuade a single passenger to change to another bus (the route is similar, but some cities are different, Lviv and Bukovel are there and there). Called in the evening that there is a negative couple with a broken arm, go book.

Professional drivers Sashko and Vitaliy, thank you!

With a nap in the night, until Thursday morning, our first object - we come to the Zbarazh fortress, the weather allows you to take pictures and move, but still cloudy, the temperature is about +17.

Zbarazh Fortress

Then we go to Ternopil. We are greeted by a guide, he does not say what tourists want to hear - it's a school, it's the city hall, etc.

Arrive in the evening to Yaremche, accommodation in a manor-wooden house on 4 floors, the last under the sloping roof.

The rooms are still occupied by children who came to the festival, due to weather conditions postponed the departure, and occupy us with the growth of Vova under 2 meters, under the roof without amenities. The mood dropped even more, but we promise tomorrow, while we are on a tour to move our things to the room below with amenities. Every step up the stairs and the corridor can be heard in our room, a squeak, creak, etc. on the bed you need to lie crawling so as not to get caught on the sloping wall, bed 1.8m. legs do not fit, you have to curl up after a difficult road. Tired after the road with swollen legs fell asleep soundly)). And indeed on the second day our things were already waiting for us on the 2nd floor in a room with a bathroom and a large bed, that's what we thought of happiness! The tap water was dark brown, cold and hot during the day, turned off at night.

But nothing, we thought - and so normally we will survive two more nights and home. The view from the window is CHICK! mountains with a haze of beauty))

The weather is terrible, constantly raining, mid-summer temperature at night +5, during the day sometimes even +15 is =)). From warm things they took only sports suits - after all, summer! It's good that I took a few T-shirts a week and underwear a week. To wash senselessly - rain daily, damp.

Friday morning, have breakfast and go to Bukovel. Beautiful, civilized, and the weather is good, which makes us happy! Paid 105 hryvnias for the lift and forward to the top, emotions are overflowing! ! ! ! ! We go around all the tracks, take photos of everything around and do not forget yourself! We went down and decided to have lunch in a cafe, suddenly the cafe is filled with a lot of people, they do not have enough space. I look out the window and see nothing in the rain!

We were lucky to go down earlier, and to imagine those on the lift now, and the descent of 25 minutes! While the rain is over, the gathering of the band near the fountain and on!

We drive to the Pepper Valley.

Hotel, dinner, sleep.

Saturday, the plan is to go to Hoverla, but the instructor-guide Andrew (very literate and cheerful, a good guide) and group leader Oksana (good organizer, fun, right, worried about the group) tell us if you want in such weather floods everything, the temperature in the mountains 0 *, strong wind, storm warning) go uphill- write a receipt that we take responsibility and have no claims if anything.

We are offered to conquer Mount Makovica on the trails of Dovbush, where the path is a little easier. 51 people from our group agree! )) three children from 7 to 11 years, and the rest from 25 to 65 years. Which is older, it turns out not the first time to go up the mountain. -, experienced so to speak.

And we, with our health problems, did not even imagine how difficult it is, even in such weather! The mountain is not higher than 2000 meters, but the road consisted of paths along the rocks, then between the streams formed by the rain, on the branches of trees, forest glades and so on. d ....and as a result the way made 12 kilometers! When we walked a little more than 1 km through the woods, the soles of my sneakers, wet feet, cellophane raincoats, and fatigue began to peel off. And you will not go back and forward the unknown, and ashamed of the group. I grit my teeth, trying to stay in the middle of the group. The higher we climbed, the colder it became, sweating from the effort, and at stops for 15 minutes froze.

In my mind, only one thing would have ended sooner, so as not to get sick. We can hardly reach the top, the unpleasant rain is drizzling, the wind knocks the birds to the ground, tears in our eyes - but we hold on! The temperature is near zero.

Vova has gouty arthritis, he sees my condition and tries to hide how bad it is, he supports me. The sole is held only on the heels, I try not to trip, I understand that barefoot in socks on the rocks and roots, I can not go down. At the top of a small cafe is blown on all sides, and a cheese house, where at least a little warmed up and the trembling of the body calmed down. They ate, those who wished to buy cheese. From here you could order a jeep for 1000 hryvnia to go down the mountain. We saw how the car almost overturned, but agreed, and no companions were found, and the guide said he would take back a shorter route and less difficult. Decided to walk!

And it really was easier, maybe morally we come back, but easier.

We came to the bus, then visited the waterfall in Yaremche and the market near it.

What happiness that the ascent was on the penultimate day, if on the first we could not see anything else. In the evening, Vova had a temperature of 38.6, chills and elephant-like legs, I just froze. Nimesil and other medicines were as usual in our first aid kit, nowhere without a first aid kit!

Sunday, breakfast, room vacancy and moving to Lviv, the weather is still very changeable, +12 then rain then a little sun. We are greeted by a guide Nadiya, who knows the city well about history and tells interesting stories. Conducts a tour of Lviv, give us free time, pick up the bus at 18.00.

We visited the cafe and ate, returned to the Chocolate Workshop for a delicious one, walked around the center, another heavy rain began and we headed to the bus.

Most of the group was already on the bus, waited for the rest and at 18.30 left in the direction of HOME)) I look out the window and see a beautiful dawn!

At 7 am, Monday, we arrived in Poltava, with a smile and congratulations "vacationers returned" we were greeted by acquaintances who went to work. Poltava greeted us with sunshine +17, it was nice that we are finally home))

Many thanks to the organizers, guides, drivers and attendants, as well as all members of the group, it was interesting and informative! ! ! ! !

In conclusion, I want to say, people, before such a trip, think carefully about every detail, take into account your physical capabilities and health, then the trip will be a joy! ))

We are pleased to have decided on this trip, we are slowly restoring our health to the state it was in before the trip.

Happy travel to all and good weather! ! ! ! !
