Krakow pt 1




Hi everyone,

Krakow is a maginificent city! Could spend half my time these just walking the streets! Town of my birth could be one reason...but it's beauty, 1000+ year old heritage, and fantastik feel & food make it a great place to enjoy. Hopefully the pics below will give those that haven't visited a feel of the old city.

The turbo should be fixed by the end of the week and we can do some travelling FURTHER AFAR.
Everyone is well except caroline today as she had a tummy bug and now "feels like a feather"

Enjoy


Famous mariacki Chrch tower from which a trumpet player plays an anthem every hour. It is ended mid stream as legend has it after he cops a turkish arrow.


Slowacki theatre
Sukkiennice


Sukkiennice inside - full of small stalls selling touristy and folk stuff.
