THIS is my journey home

THIS is my journey home. From London through central & western Europe (not to forget the royal wedding!) and onwards to experience South America. If you know of my past travels at all you will realise that this blog is most likely going to be eventful and an interesting read.






No matter how organised......

Krakow

I was off to Krakow unfortunately I hadn't planned this part of the journey so well and it was a 10 hour  journey (actually it was 12 after the train went past Krakow because of line works) where I met up with Chris for the weekend.

Our hostel is in an amazing location just off the main square and there is a very cool Easter market here. I bought a donut looking/smelling thing with cranberry sauce which turned out to be cheese = my new favourite food.
Eating a Pretzel in the main square

First day we took the local bus to Auschwitz which was as somber as you would expect we missed the last bus home and had to walk to the train station for a slow journey back to town.
I want to take this opportunity to shout out to the asian girl on the Auschwitz tour who took photos of everything, including a photo giving the thumbs up in front of the 'death wall' WHAT WAS SHE THINKING!!!

Second day we hung round the main square, main castle and generally ate our way around Krakow, beautiful city made for just chilling out and drinking beer in the evenings.

Anyone else agree that the Ginger Monkey Hostel logo has an uncanny resemblance to Chris....
