Gertrúda Milchová and friends out for a walk around Kacin

This photograph was taken in 1995. I, Gertrúda Milchová, am first on the right. The others in the picture are a friend of mine with her daughter. We?re on a trip to Kacín, near Bratislava. My daughter and I used to go on vacations regularly. We were at Kremnicka Skalka, Demänovska Dolina. We used to go on outings with a colleague of mine from work, she had two children of the same age. And we used to see each other with my stepsister, because she's got a daughter and a son. Her daughter is the same age as mine. My circle of friends wasn't very large, more on the small side.
