As I look out the window, I see the sun shining on the freshly painted communist era apartment blocks. Today our plans are to cook a lunch for my Polish family. Thora is also making a Pavlova without kiwi fruit and a few other exotic antipodian ingredients. While we look forward to this day, the suns emergence makes me ask the question: where were you yesterday? Yesterday we were in Krakow which is one of the worlds most beautiful cities. It was grey, a little misty and the weather switched between rain and micro hail. It was a nice day though as we went with some of my family. We walked around and checked out a cool English bookstore/Cafe that we visited on our last journey, had lunch in a cool under ground Ukranian resteraunt, not to mention the main sites of the Wawel castle and old town square (scaffolding again).
It's definately warming up a bit and you often see a waterfall of ice and snow come crashing down to the ground after being dislodged from a roof. Shhhhh BOOUggrrhhhhh!
We hear Deutsch Bahn is coming to Poland. This is good news as our PKP Krakow to Katowice Express train service averaged a whopping 40km an hour over the 80km distance, taking about 2 hours. You should witness their luxury toilets.
We go to the Mountains tomorrow. Hopefully it buckets down with snow there tonight and the sun follows us there tomorrow.
Dean.
