Levi had the morning off from practice, and since the hot days of summer in Poland are few and far between, we decided to see what a Polish beach was like. A 20 minute train ride from Slupsk is Ustka. It's a cute little coastal town that's pretty touristy in summer. The beach is soft, white sand and absolutely PACKED with people! We experienced this same thing in Mallorca in August as this is the month many Europeans are on vacation.
It was about 82 degrees outside but the water was about 55 degrees. We jumped in but it felt more like the type of water Levi uses to ice his legs after practice. We walked around a little and glanced at all the souvenirs people were selling. Levi found a delicious lunch of kielbasa and potatoes. I brought a sandwich since hoping a little town like this will have food for me is a bad idea. Most kielbasa (typical Polish sausage) has gluten in it (or traces of it). However, we did successfully find some gluten free kielbasa! The brand is Nowak and we found it at a store called E.Leclerc. I'll be posting a recipe soon that I made with it :)
The town is cute but there's really not much to do unless you wanna lay on the beach or go shopping. So we stayed a few hours and headed home. A small but fun adventure :)
