Horror Train
... pointed us in the right direction, they were the couple staying with us. Now unlocked ten different locks with ten different keys trudge up three flights of stairs another couple of locks and we are in. Bloody hell thank goodness the rooms are decent - single beds again!

The party city and a sobering day
... Krakow dawned (we had of course seen it) and after a few hours sleep we were up and about to take in the sights of the city. We joined a free walking tour in the Old Town, and followed the guide around listening to the tales and facts about Poland and the buildings of Krakow. After an hour and a half of standing in the sweltering sun, with grumbling stomachs and murderous thirst, we abandoned the tour and went in search of lunch. We found, to our delight, ...
