Monday 2nd July
Rushden 13degrees and raining. made our way to Kassel in Germany and this was to be our first stop for the night.
Tuesday 3rd July
Got up at 5.30am to get going. Polish border 11.00am starting to get warm in the car then realised all vents were closed no wonder we were feeling drowsy! No traffic where does it all go? and just realised I had forgotten to pack the binoculars proberley see loads of bears,wolves,bison,lynx etc.. now, remembered everything else!
40 minutes into Poland and stopped by Police..oh dear what have we done. No Polish, no english and no lights! Policeman asked "do you have Zolty?." 100 zolty. Gary said " how much really no too much!" I said " just for having no lights!" Policeman then waved us on. He must have thought it was just too much trouble as we didn't know the language. He lost out on a few beers that night!
Arrived in Kracow in a thunderstorm with hailstones and 32deg phew its very warm and humid, and extremly hot in our hotel room! Now done 1,046 miles so far.
Wednesday 4th July
Caught the tram and got into the main part of the city. Had a good walk around visiting the Castle and the Jewish quarter, lunch was in the garden of a small resturant in the Jewish quarter. Kracow is a lovely City. Bit disappointed this time as there was nothing going on in the main square, but still lots to see again.
lots going on in the evening though!
