Znin...weddings and family time!

We left Warsaw for Znin for the wedding of Marcin and Marta, Ewa’s cousins. After some phone calls to my Aunt Lula (mother of the groom and also a wonderfully sweet woman) we found out that the bride had a few people coming in from Norway and that she organized for a bus to pick them up...

Warsaw...this time for business!

Warszawa, our first stop into Warsaw was supposed to be strictly business. We had to arrange for our Chinese visa to enter China later in September. SO, the first day after checking into the hostel, we simply walked around the town for a quick overview of Ewa’s favourite streets and...

Travel and Transformers

Our train to Warsaw was leaving at 10am today, so it was up earlyish and onto the platform for the 3 hour journey. Some of the trains we have been using have been less than desirable to say the least, but this train was NIIIICE, plus we had the carriage all to ourselves, so it was even more...

City castle and charades with a non English speaking Polish hair dresser

After a bit of a sleep in we made our way into the old town square for some breakfast, which was all well and good, however it was now after lunch, so finding some where that did a breakfast menu was proving impossible. We trudged along and eventually gave up any hope of finding any little...
