Sept. 23 - Pieniny National Park

The rafts aren't exactly Coast Guard approved, there wasn't a life jacket to be seen, and luckily the rapids weren't too scary. The only things that suffered were our butts.....2.5 hours on an 8 inch wide wooden bench ain't very comfy. But the scenery was magnificent. If only we'd been able to understand the (suspected) off-colour jokes of our boatman it would have been close to perfect.  You can check out the high tech wooden rafts which they hook together side by side depending on the number of passengers, and some of the scenery in the gorge.
