Three Rainy Days in Krakow

After a full day in Warsaw, Theresa and I took the train over to Krakow. The train trip was an experience - since the Polish trains don't announce the stops. But thanks to our careful attention and a nice gentleman who confirmed that we indeed had arrived in Krakow, we managed to get off at the right stop!

Shortly after we arrived it started raining, and it rained for practically the entire time we were there - despite the hotel weather forecast in the elevator of "84 and sunny" for Friday. Try 65 and rain and hail. :-)


We spent the first day getting acquainted with the Old Town in Krakow and attended a Chopin concert in one of the local churches that evening put on by a local pianist along with a string quintet. They were fantastic! Though Theresa and I definitely brought the average age of the audience down a few notches....


After our concert, we tested out Krakow's Mexican food. Not bad!! Though the traditional rice and beans side dishes were replaced with cabbage salad. A little different. :-)
