Yesterday was spent mostly in packing and on the train, although we did have time for a traditional lunch of baked potatoes, which were scrumptious! Our first impressions of Krakow were delightful: it was dusk, and we had to walk through Medieval walls and just inside the walls adjacent to the most charming buildings in order to get to our hotel. The hotel dates to the 1700s, and has a great entryway (although the room itself is set up as a hostel, and must confess that it's not shall we say the most luxurious apartment we've ever seen...it is clean, though, so that's all to the good!).
Since we arrived late, we decided to dine in the restaurant next door. It was so pleasant: our waiter speaks quite a bit more English than we do Polish, but was nonetheless a little limited. During the course of our meal, we exchanged a ton of smiles and he attempted to teach us a few more phrases (not altogether successfully, I must admit). He even let us stay in the garden well past the normal garden closure time and brought us some meringues as a treat for when we were paying our bill! A complete love.
And then off to bed in preparation for an early start.
Love,
Alexandra
