Comments
The only unpleasant experience, which we could remember when departing, was maybe only the late arrival at night. Thanks to hospitality of our hosts, who gladly offered us with refreshment at 2 am, and thanks to our fancy of life, we woke up with vigorousness and we undertook everything what was expected from us. The repayment for us was expressed by applause and smiles of our audience. Providing all our duties, we could enjoy ourselves in the evening. This time we favoured scenic dancing more than disco – we simply improvised, for several lazier tirnavists, the Slovak musical “Neberte nam princeznu” (Don’t take our princess from us). We displayed our joyful dispositions also while endlessly waiting for the results and distributing of prizes and diplomas, when we were standing in a circle outside in a deadly cold weather and singing all the hits of “Macko Usko and Vcielka Maja” (Bear Ear and Bee Maja – fairy tales). Moreover, we even enjoyed it, we were friends, we were holding hands of one another and all the people around envied us.
