It didn’t look that far on the map (it never does) but it’s an awfully long way to Gdansk. Set on Poland’s northern shore, it takes us virtually the whole day to drive there. It’s […]
2019 Day 71 – Warsaw’s Royal Castle
Having legged it all over Warsaw’s key sights yesterday, it’s with some relief we plan a slower pace today. First stop is the Warsaw Uprising monument, spotted on our way home last night. It, like […]
2019 Day 70 – Warsaw
It was always going to be a busy day, our first outing into Warsaw. Consequently we’re up and at it, bright and early. Relatively speaking. Warsaw is divided into three distinct areas, the Old and […]
2019 Day 69 – Pulawy
Ostensibly, we’re Warsaw bound, but not before a brief stop in Pulawy, to see the Czartoryski Palace. Home to Princess Izabella in the late 1700s, the Palace was a central point for culture, drawing in […]
2019 Day 68 – Kazimierz Dolny
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 64 – Zamosc
We have our first taste today, of the distances Poland will bring. We’re driving from Wieliczka to Zamosc in Poland’s south east. With over 300 km separating the two places, it’s a drive that would […]
2019 Day 63 – Wieliczka
I’m guessing it’s an overdose of Disney that has the seven dwarfs song running through my head this morning. We’re off to Wieliczka, some 25 kilometres from Krakow, to visit its ancient salt mine….hi, ho, […]
