Just a few photos this time

Work on 5th of May - a national holiday in the Netherlands (Bevrijdingsdag) as well as a day off for everybody anyway (Hemelvaart). Been out hiking after work at Matka. Visited Sveti Nikola. It was actually a little too dark to be out in the mountains (some photos are not that lively), but the views from up at the monestary were worth it. That's all for today. Here are some photos.

What starts off with a steep climb, becomes a fairly easy hike steadily upwards. After a little less than an hour, this 'road sign' tells you that you're almost there.
The monestary is really visible on this one.
That's him. Sveti Nikola (St. Nikola). One of the million very small chapels to be found on monestary compounds in Macedonia.
Walk this way and you'll see...
...THIS!

This view is actually being sold as a postcard. Please notice the little other Sveti next to the restaurant annex mountaineering centre.
