So much has been happening. Everyday begins with breakfast at 7:45ish. We have a 15 minute walk to class. Our Polish class runs 8:30-10:15. Then a few of us (about 25) run over to the tram to get into the city. Our art class begins at 11 at any desired location the teacher decides on. It is the best class ever! We just wander the city everyday and learn about the art and architecture and see museums and whatnot. We have already seen so much. We saw all of Wawel Castle, the Barbikan, St. Mary's church.....it seems that by the end of the program we will have seen all the churches in Krakow which there are about 20 of.

Then after class we get back to the dorm and have dinner at 2-3. Then we nap or do homework. There is food again at 6-8 and then we go out. It's crazy to believe that all our meals at this dorm are served by waiters and waitresses and the food is unbelievable A castle about an hour outside Krakow

 . I don't think there has been one day yet where any of us were hungry. They certainly know how to feed us.

A few days ago the program put on a re-enactment of a Polish wedding. It was fun to watch but definitely NOTHING like the real thing. One day I couldn't meet up with my friends until a little later because I was with family. They went to Kazimierz to a Hookah Bar. I have no idea how I found my way but somehow I did...in the dark too. It was a really chill place. On our way home at like 1 as we walked through the Rynek, this Don Quixote thing was rolling through the Rynek. It was like this giant ball with a man in it and music from Don Quixote. So random
