Some of my photos are up, on flickr. There are others, but I’ll spare you!
On our fun filled journey by bus and train across Poland we have been mostly calling at:
Wisla – up in the mountains, a ski resort, Fort William esque – with the gortex, but also with sun! A place the Poles go, not many foreign tourists – nice!
Katowice – why would you? There is nothing here, well apart from the World Youth Beach Volleyball Championships! The teams were staying at our hotel, happy days! The future looks bright for Australia and Team NZ!
Krakow – is a lovely city, but it is getting overrun by tourists. Highlights include Wawel Castle, Kazimierz – the Jewish Quarter, and pottering in the main square. Tallinn is far superior though! Whilst randomly traipsing around the old city, we managed to meet all the Scots who had been at the wedding 3 days earlier. Typical. I also sat down for a drink in Kazimierz to overhear a couple of Valley Boys discussing where to go next.
More details will follow, as well as thoughts about Auschwitz (when I feel ready enough!) and ramblings about budget airlines and the demise of individuality.
