MERMAID BOOBS
The following day began early with 200 km. of driving to meet up with Polish slalom racer Maciek Rutkowski in Slupsk and to sail a couple spots near his home Ustka and Rowy. The winding, narrow piece of pavement that took us there had us regretting ever combining the words ‘Polish’ and ‘Autobahn’. Arriving in Ustka we quickly noticed why the town has won awards as the best summer place in the country. The cozy narrow streets that house a population of 17,000 charmingly led us to a small waterfront park. The temperature was only around 15 degrees, but the sun heated up the land enough to help accelerate the onshore breeze. Checking out what sail size to rig we wore winter jackets and were shocked to see a few elderly men soaking up the sun topless.
