Right. A quieter pace today perhaps? Yesterday’s marathon effort knocked us both out a little. But not too quiet!First, the Gothic castle and tower on the hill. Nothing like a kilometre of stairs to get […]
2019 Day 67 – Kozlowka and Kazimierz Dolny
We’re continuing our tour of southeastern Poland visiting Kozlowka, home to a magnificent 18th century castle, once residence to the (then) king’s illegitimate daughter and her husband. It’s considered one of the finest examples of […]
2019 Day 66 – Allegedly a day of rest
You know “rest”, right? Feet up, binge series/book at the ready, feet up, cocktails on tap? That’s what I thought too. Today’s not even close. In fairness, Poland has challenged us in one unforseen way […]
2019 Day 65 – Lubin
I just can’t resist another stroll into Zamosc in the morning. And it’s just as well. Last night we didn’t get the chance to see the Cathedral, but it’s open this morning. We also see […]

2019 Day 62 – Another gorgeous day exploring Krakow
Well, at least we know what we’re doing today. The challenge of getting into Krakow sorted, we’re free to explore at will. Our guide book tells me we were most remiss in not visiting the […]
2019 Day 61 – Krakow
Krakow! Very excited to be at the “official” start of our route through Poland. Described as one of Poland’s most beautiful cities, Krakow was exceedingly lucky to come out of both world wars relatively undamaged. […]
2019 Day 60 – Farewell Slovakia, Hello Poland!
We had intended to stay another day in Slovakia, popping into the nearby town of Dolny Kubin for lunch, to catch our breath before the vast distances that Poland will bring. Here’s what actually happened…. […]
2019 Day 59 – Oravska Poruba
Well, we had great plans for today – continuing our tour of Central Slovakia, stopping in Zilina, famous for its colourful historic centre. The fates however have other plans. Our path skirts the Tatras mountains, […]
