... so to pick up tickets, then make our way to the Katowice train station. What is with us and being late for trains? After a lot of running and dropping things from our backpacks, we eventually made it well before the train. <br><br>We switched trains at Wroclaw station. It was the first time i'd been to a Maccas where nobody spoke english. I felt very vulnerable, but thankfully Anita was fluent in Polish. After a day long train ride, and a touch of ...

... Mountains is part of the larger Sudetes range. Its highest peak is Sniezka which stands on the border between the Poland and Czech Republic - at a height of 1602 meters above sea level. The mountains are wonderful for trekking and ski. Large areas of the mountains are preserved as National Park.<br><br>To see photos from Jelenia Gora and Mountains please click here:<br>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v =7KSPFn6p9Y0

... Germany the food and especially the beer is great and expectedly even cheeper. I think the beer here is probably our favorite tipple in the world, its that good. No matter how much Czech beer you drink its always light and fresh and never leaves you with much of a hangover, I think it has something to do with the local water. We stayed on a proper camp site filled the fridge with cold beers and had a evening sampling the local brews, bliss.<br><br>The rest of ...

al the former eastern bloc countries make for good travel,, but the one that i return to is the czech republic,, mainly to the north [north bohemia],liberec,harrochov,cesky raj, but a trip or two to moravia is also worth taking,,. during the communist times it was an eye opener, now also as the people wish for the return of those times,they knew where their bread was coming from, and the upgrades fron old skoda to super fast motorcars,, ah they stilll are crazy on the roads

... takze sme vybrali nase jesenne vertovky, ktore s nami precestovali pol sveta za posledny tyzden a mohli sme objavovat mesto pred nami. Liberec ma krasny architekturu z cias ked to bolo druhe najvyznamnejsie mesto v Cechach. Jeho odevnicky a tkacsky priemysel je preslaveny v celom byvalom Ceskoslovensku.

... of pleasure, prayer, and balance in life. Hornet Flight by Ken Follet An espionage-action novel set in WWII Denmark by the author of Pillars of the Earth. A pretty eclectic mix, which is how I like it. I actually NEED to re-read the Chesterton because it was such a paradoxical page turner that I am still trying to wrap my head around it. Still, I look forward to Krakow in a few days and the promise of some new reading material.

... najpierw 1 krok do przodu, np. powie mi cos osobistego, a potem 2 do tylu - np. caly dzien mi dokucza. Ja z kolei... moge robic na poczatku mylne wrazenie. Ale jestem cholernie wrazliwa i ciepla. Mimo, ze na razie chyba oboje nie mamy ochoty ogladac sie nawzajem, to mam wrazenie, ze byl jednak jakis taki "klik", zazebienie trybow miedzy nami. A jesli tego "kliku" nie ma, to trudno zbudowac przyjazn, nawet, jakby to ...

After my longest stretch of work without a break, I was glad when the May day holiday finally came around. It was a year earlier that I took advantage of the sunny skies to do some hiking in the Tatra mountains, although it was to be a different mountain range this time around. For the first time, I was to head south west into the heart of the Karkonosz mountains, a range made up of predominantly spruce forest, with dwarf mountain pines and alpine vegetation fading away above 1250m to ...

... as I have finally relented and allowed her to have access to the heater, this is due to the clothing crisis, we look silly in just jumpers and shorts (I think this was Jennies plan all along!!). We didn't manage to get into the local town except for the shopping trip as the priority was for Jenn to get the washing done - it may appear that I am a slave driver, but when the lav breaks down I have my hand in the socket fixing it so don't feel too bad.

... over as they investigated the USA passport. They probably don't see many of these at this crossing! We cruised into the town of Liberec and the green mountains began to extend in the distance and the fresh mountain air cascaded thru my lungs! We found the tourist office and our route further over the mountian to our camping destination. "It is just over the moutain range on the other side", said the woman at ...
