I come to Slovakia twice or three time per year. And almost every time I stop in Bajč for relax. I hoped somebody will place cache near so that I can search for it. But since nobody has hidden it, time to do some cache hiding.
So, if you have time, stop at the Red and search the cache.
Prichadzam na Slovensko dvakrat alebo trikrat cez rok. A skoro každy krat zastavim sa v Bajči pre oddych od cesty. Dufal som že niekto postavi kešku blizko aby som mohol hladat. Ale ked nikto tam nedal kešku, je čas aby sa urobilo schovanie kešky.
Tak, ak mate čas, zastavte sa pri Červenej a pohladajte kešku.
