Ruciane-Nida

We've just come back from a short trip (3 days) to Ruciane-Nida. It's in the north of Poland and is a really beautiful area of lakes and forests. It's also a big sailing destination in the summer, when hoards of Poles take holidays up there. As it's early March there weren't many people around (one night we were the only people staying at the hotel).

We hired a car for our journey as reaching the place by public transport looked to be a bit of a challenge. The driving was a bit terrifying at times - most of the journey was single carriageway, but it didn't stop the Polish attempting suicidal overtaking manoeuvres. More than once we were grateful to still be alive!
