Kolobrzeg Day 2

Today we got up and headed of to find all the sculptures! There were a few cute, fun seagull statues yesterday, and we have seen some a few other places up here so Raymond was wondering how many there were. So I of course looked it up and they are a symbol of this town and made by a local artist! There are 12 here in town (2 we already saw and one we will see again tomorrow - I remember him from the last time) so we set off to find the other ones! Such fun! I put the photos all together at the end of the post and one we almost missed as it was in a cafe seating area, but we found them all!

We also just wandered the rest of town we hadn’t yesterday and it was so nice! Lots of nice parks to wander or hang out in and it was great. We did bring our swimsuits today so we could swim after lunch…and then by 11:30 it was just super rainy. We headed towards lunch and when we got there (the outside seating was covered but open) it really started to pour and was raining all through lunch. We stopped at this Asian Polish place which sounded strange so we wanted to try it. It was kind of a fancy place and all the food was amazing. We got an Japanese tomato soup (there was rice with dehydrated tomato on top on the soup), baked cabbage with polish grey sauce (sauce made from bread), spicy potato noodles, very savory gnocchi with vegan cheese, and a basque cheesecake which we wanted to try, but I didn’t really think I would like it…but it was amazing! If we hadn’t ordered so much I could have eaten it all myself! So good!! All the flavors were very different and not something we have had before. Plus the waitress was super fun and friendly. And not very expensive! I even got fancy homemade lemonade (rhubarb and rose, and a strawberry mint - both delicious!) and Raymond got a beer and it was still not much! I kinda wish I had another slice of that cheesecake now…

After lunch since it was still rainy we decided to wander towards home and then relax on the balcony, though it took us a while to get back here! I think we actual got back later than yesterday! And by the time we got home it was sunny and warm and I was like man! We could be swimming! But the beach is a 30min walk and we were too tired by then. Oh well…maybe next summer we will get to swim!

We did order pizza for dinner, but I forgot to take a photo before we started eating but it was also super delicious! And different flavors than what we normally see. One was tomato, vegan cheese, pumpkin seeds, arugula and balsamic (with mushrooms and olives for Raymond), and the other was cheese, truffle paste, dried tomatoes, balsamic onions and basil and that one was amazing! They were both good, but that one was so so good! All the food has been so good here and not very expensive! We will definitely have to come back just to try more!

Tomorrow we will wander along the beach across the river inlet from town (the side we are staying on) before heading home. This was such a fun day!Read more
