Pictures from Krakow!
A shot of the royal cathedral at Wawel Castle. Krakow was the capital of Poland until the 15th or 16th century, and you can tell it was a rich medieval city.
Me at the cloister at the royal cathedral.
A cool old dragon statue outside Wawel.
The dragon also shoots flames periodically. Cool!
Best hostel ever? I do think so.
King Kasimierz, the greatest king of Poland. The Jewish quarter of Krakow is named after him because of how tolerant he was towards the Jews.
The Polish Lombard Market? Do long lost relates also buy their beer at the Lombard Market?
True that.
Wawel is really pretty. The whole town of Krakow is really, despite having gone through so much trouble in the past 200 years or so.
We had lunch here. A liter of beer and a huge plate of honey ribs with fries and coleslaw cost around $7. Polish food was cheap and very delicious.
The Cloth Guild Hall. They used to sell clothing and cloth here but now it's just a place for souvenier vendors.
I imagine that this is what every good Communist drove.
We walked by this probably 10 times and it was never not funny.
Kasimeirz on his horse outside Wawel.
Once again, loved the trip and only wish we could've stayed longer.
Love everybody,

Back from the Motherland
Krakow is a beautiful city and Polish people are some of the nicest in the world. Loved the trip.
I'll get some pictures up tomorrow.
