Jahorina and me - 30 years of love
Jahorina and me - 30 years of love: I was there with the ski club 1988 and this time, 2018, I enjoyed being there again thinking of all nice days 30 years ago. The fog that covered almost the whole mountain was there all four days.
I remember 1984 in Sarajevo. I was just a kid but I remember that winter and the Winter Olympic Games. That was also my first time I visited Jahorina mountain (1914 meters above the sea level) outside of Sarajevo. After the Olympic Games my brother and me begun our ski training. Thanks to our parents we could join Ski Club Sarajevo (SSK - Sarajevski Smucarski Klub) and that was very nice experience.
Unfortunately we had to stop because different circumstances such as political problems and war in Yugoslavia.
After that I always dreamed about Jahorina and skiing there. My first time skiing there after the war was 2009. I was there one day in the end of 2014 or 2015 (I can not remember which of those years) and my third time was now, February 2018. I visited Jahorina with my wife, our kid and my wife's cousin and his wife and kid. We stayed at hotel Vucko three nights and it was great.
Unfortunately, the weather on Jahorina was not so friendly. The fog that covered almost the whole mountain was there all four days.
Jahorina and me - 30 years of love: I visited almost all points that I recognized in the thick fog that covered almost the whole mountain during all four days.
But the fog did not stop me. I could experience Jahorina once again. I found our old ski lift called Olimpik in Rajska Dolina, a very nice part of the mountain.
Jahorina and me - 30 years of love: Our old ski lift called Olimpik in Rajska Dolina, a very nice part of the mountain. Also there I experienced some ski rides.
Olimpik and Rajska Dolina are close to Praca, also a very known part of Jahorina, so your ski ride can be prolonged and enjoyable.
Jahorina and me - 30 years of love: I was there with the ski club 1988 and this time, 2018, I enjoyed being there again thinking of all nice days 30 years ago.
We can say that this February on Jahorina was the 30th anniversary. I was there with the ski club 1988 and this time, 2018, I enjoyed being there again thinking of all nice days 30 years ago. Our room at hotel Vucko was great and fresh. Everything looked nice inside.
Jahorina and me - 30 years of love: We stayed at hotel Vucko three nights. We had a very comfortable room. Everything was fresh and well taken care of.
But it was also great and silent outside. We asked for a nice and silent room so they gave it to us.
Jahorina and me - 30 years of love: The view out from our window - that was what we wanted to experience. Snow and silence during whole 24 hours.
We had breakfast and dinner at the hotel and both were simply great. We could choose different kind of food, drinks and cakes. You could compare it with some kind of All Inclusive service but this one was little bit higher quality.
I hope you enjoyed reading this reportage as much as enjoyed writing it.
