Writing you the next part of EEET
2012 in Krakow.
After washing the first load of
muddy clothes at Pawel’s place, we met up with Justyna and Silke who came over
from Krakow. Next, Pawel’s mother made us some excellent typical Polish dinner.
We then made a late-night walk through the ancient city centre of Warsaw,
before being hit by a thunderstorm right above our heads. First time ever, that
I actually remember, lightning struck right above my head. Crazy experiences
indeed.

The next morning, we met up with
Wojciech and made a long trip through the city of Warsaw. From the city centre,
with its National Museum of Science and Art – erected by the soviets, the
national library, city hall, etc. In the
afternoon we had lunch and chilled on a beach, next to the river Wisla, which
floats from the Tatra Mountains in the south, through Krakow and Warsaw to
Gdansk in the north, and next to the new soccer stadium built for Euro2012.

In the evening we went out to a
so-called dodgy neighborhood in Warsaw where we drank some beers and met some
random crazy Polish people. Intercultural experiences as they say.
On Tuesday we chilled out, packed
our bags, bought a couple of postcards and went for a real ‘kalasjnikov’
(Mitraillette in Belgium, is called kalasjnikov in Poland…). At three we took a
three-hour train ride to Poznan, first capital and economical centre of Poland
and home city of Wojciech. That’s for a next post. It’s almost 1.30AM and
tomorrow we’re going to discover Krakow! I’m off.
peace out_
