• Gdańsk 2.5

    3 августа 2023 г., Польша ⋅ ⛅ 17 °C

    I wrote my day 2 for gdansk as i finished my beer and was about to head to my hotel. But things took a fun turn. Thus, this 2nd entry.

    I remembered the pub next to my hotel was still open. I figured i would pop in for one more as i was planning to leave gdansk in the morning and a bit reluctant to say goodbye.

    I was standing at the bar sipping my beer and i could hear a familiar accent next to me. I asked the girl where she was from and she said texas. Soon discovered she used to travel to ottawa monthly for work. I got invited to join her and her family at their table.

    Chatted with Spring, Blake and Letisha until the place closed. I told them i know a place that is still open so off we went. At this next place befriended two germans who are cycling 2500km across europe. And also some poles. When this place closed, we decided to find one more place for dancing. My phone cell service died so i couldn't find the place i was at the night before.

    While wandering the streets, we accumulated a few more people from australia and nepal. We thought we found a place and all piled in but it was actually a gentleman's club haha. When i got in, everyone already had a huge table to my surprise. I took a quick picture of only the group and this employee came running over asking for my phone and to delete my picture. I said no thank you and they kicked me out.

    Fortunately everyone followed and the germans thanked me haha. Finally found the blues brothers bar and we were home. One of the germans bought a round. The americans bought shots and i bought the last round and then we all eventually decided to leave and get to bed.

    Made several new polish friends on the walk back. Said our goodbyes with some pics by the neptune statue outside our accomodations. And the Americans arranged a next day meetup at noon at the irish bar. Told everyone I'd likely be on a train to warsaw and the germans told me if i show up, they'd pay for everything haha.

    I don't know how many times i heard "hey Canadian, come here!!" Haha. Possibly my favourite night of the trip and it was so close to not happening
