We waited up until late into the night, when we installed behind the cabin 500 W lamp above the slope and we deployed there several torches.

I just had not put into the ski base repair service to …
Zajezdilo se výborně jak na lyžích (Lenka, Libor, palič), tak na snowboardu (Všeťa a Verča). Ani nevím, kdy jsme skončili a zapadli opět dovnitř.
