Summer in Krakow

Last summer a friend of mine came to visit me in London. Whilst she was here we thought we would have a summer escape to the continent – so she could do some more travel and I could visit somewhere new and exciting. Many places were tossed up – a week in the Greek Islands? Spain? Or Prague? Finally we settled on Krakow and, I have to say, I was stoked as it was pretty high on my to-travel list.

We decided to spend 4 nights there to give us the chance to fit in as many of the tourist attractions and cultural experiences we could. Our first afternoon was spent hanging out in the local town square buying Polish dumplings and beer from the food stalls, visiting the cloth market, resisting buying heaps of amber jewellery, and walking through the cobbled streets.  We were so lucky that we had a stunning blue sky and warm sunshine in which to do our exploring.
