Poland

The Angel House Bed and Breakfast is really smart but in an old unmarked building. Lucky we booked before leaving Berlin.The internet is good and the hotel lovely so finally we can bring the blog up to date.

From a quick look Kracow looks great.

The Angel House in Krakow was so good that after two nights it was full and we had to move on. A  day updatin e blog was relieved by a trip to the supermarket for polish bread,smoked salmon, beer and salad for dinner in a bar cafe in the evening with kebabs also good.

Krakow, Poland

Red hot as walk across Krakow to new room which is not perfect but has a great bath. Dave walks all over city looking for another place for next day and most are full. City square in evening is beautiful.

Friday old city walking tour. Many highlights but popes house, trumpet in tower, music in old church castle and cathedral are best.

Move to Lemon apts very modern but in old town. Peaceful in day but lots of partying in the streets after dark. Vampires disappeared at first light and quiet again.

Walked through old jewish district of Kazmiers to Schindlers factory. Very moving.Back through old town with lots of music.

Aushwitz, Poland

Aushwitz and birkenau extermination camp next day. A good guide for a terrible story.

Zakopane, Poland

Bus to zakopane next day through beautiful countryside and traffic jams.So busy different to when Dave was last here 37 years ago. Hotel in rolling countryside about 5kms away.View up to high mountains. Dave walks over little hills back to Zakopane main street is packed. Beer and sausage and to a nice entrance to national park. Gorgeous. Dinner up road is good but costs more than we expect.
