Stara zgodba

Polly si od blizu spet ogleda stopnice. Zelo strme so, skoraj kot lestev. Vsaka stopnica je malo drugačna. Skoči po prvih nekaj navzdol.

Up close Polly looks at the steps again. They are very steep, almost like a ladder. Every step is a little different. She hops down the first few.

O stopnicah obstaja stara zgodba. Ljudje pravijo, da so nekoč vojaki napadli mesto. Pravijo, da so vojaki vse stopnice vsekali v eni noči.

There is an old story about the steps. People say that soldiers came to attack the town long ago. They say the soldiers cut all the steps in one night.

To je dobra zgodba. Ampak verjetno ni resnična. Dvesto stopnic v trdi skali ne moreš vsekati v eni noči. In tu so bili stražarji. Videli bi delo.

It is a good story. But it is probably not true. You cannot cut two hundred steps into hard rock in one night. And there were guards here. They would see the work.

Polly sede na stopnico. Pod njo leti velika morska ptica. Leti zelo nizko nad vodo. Ne maha s perutmi.

Polly sits down on a step. A big seabird flies past below her. It flies very low over the water. It does not move its wings.
