... around before hauling out and acting as if they are not at all cold. Some Poles sunbathe as it will not be long before the weather is too cold to sit outside in your swimsuit.

After walking off the pier, we go for a walk on the beach. The beach extends for miles in either direction. I would imagine it might be possible to walk to Gdansk down the beach and Gdynia up the beach. People stop and ...

... same chocolate. Oh heaven. This morning we headed directly to this café to check it out and to share with my hubby what a wonderful delicious thing this is.

While the Polish drink is not quite as decadent as that which I had in Croatia, it comes with so many more choices! You could get chocolate with coffee, with raspberries, with whiskey, Contreau, orange ...

... away. My voice is low so possibly she didn’t hear. She returns in 20 minutes (I know the time because a timer was counting down my internet time) I order one of the wines. It comes 30 minutes later. Had I not had a lot of internet business we would have been long gone. She could have drunk the wine herself then.

... Fill in the blanks here for Ryanair using your own imagination. I few from _____ to _____. The flight was _____. The seats were _______. Ryanair is always _______. The whole experience ______. Actually it wasn't that bad, and as usual both flights were early. But whoever designed those seats and whoever approved them for human use at Ryanair needs to be strapped into one of those torture devices for 24 hours.

Gdańsk, a city symbolically associated with the outburst of WWII and the beginning of the fall of communism in Europe, is a popular holiday and tourists destination in this part of the world. It is considered to be the capital of a metropolis called 3miasto (3city), and has got one of the biggest harbours in Poland.

The main tourist attraction is, undoubtedly, the Old Town. It is located just a zebra ...

... resort of Sopot. After some unsuccessful gibbering at the ticket office we were coldly dispatched to the tourist office who in turn dispatched us to Platform 4 where it turned out you bought your tickets from a small kiosk. Despite a short moment when we thought we had got the wrong train we were finally on our way. The train journey passed the Shipyards before passing through large blocks of communist style apartment blocks. Sopot was a different prospect entirely, an ...

... and just saw them from the bus or stopped just long enough to get off, snap a shot and get back on. We sat in the front of the bus and the window kept leaking on me so I was soaked before we even started. We stopped at the Oliwa Cathedral, built in the 13th century and on the grounds of an old monastery. It has a huge organ and two smaller ones, consisting of 7,876 tin and wood pipes which can imitate the sounds of different musical ...

... to be understood, we were in the furthest corner of the Frei Stadt of Danzig.It was raining in the morning, so we had another walk around. There were walls and a couple of towers which were pretty good, but as it was early, the churches were not opened so we just walked. Nicolaus Copernicus lived here once, exciting !!! There were also some other buildings which were nice, but we had to move early. See, in Poland, the roads are ****, so you don't ...

... It wasn't the most interesting exhibition, but it was worthwhile given we were standing in a place that helped bring about the fall of communism in Europe. A part of the Berlin wall was also on display as a reminder of what the Gdansk shipyard protests helped achieved. The atmosphere in Gdansk was quite mellow given the Easter holiday, and that combined with an early evening downpour meant we spent the night in the hostel playing poker. Chris, John and I went for another walk around ...
