Krakow, Poland

We arrived in Krakow, by train, the night of Jan 1st. Having been in Krakow two years ago I was confident that I could find my way to the hostel easily. Emerging from the train station into a huge modern shopping mall was very unexpected and confusing (the mall went up last year). Besides the mall and snow, I was there in August previously, everything else seemed to have not changed.

Cloth Hall interior, decorated for the holidays. This is the best shopping experience; handmade wooden crafts like boxes, plates, and toys to enormous amounts of amber jewelry were available for purchase at great prices...

More to come...

Being without internet access the last couple weeks of traveling put a hold on updating my blog. Posting of images will resume shortly. Thanks for being patient!
