Kashubia

From Karwia we drove through the area known as Kashubia, to its capital Kartuzy (named after the Carthusians who founded a monastery there?).  The Kashubians are a western Slav people, devoutly catholic, and their language is close to the original Pomeranian.  The countryside is beautiful - rolling hills, pine forests, lakes.
