The Final Day

Packing and a more leisurely start, after breakfast we enquired if we could leave our bags at reception. Crossing the bridge over the River Vistula, we quickly found the old wall that we were looking for, which is the only remains of the Krakow Jewish Ghetto from the 2nd World War. Turning back towards the old time we stayed on the far bank and began walking along the banks of the River Vistula towards the Wawel Royal Castle; built between the 13th and 14th Centuries and now a UNESCO World Heritage Site. As time drifted on we took a slow walk back to the hotel where our bags were and had a beer whilst waiting for the taxi to take us back to the airport and our flight home to Stansted Airport and the rain. As it’s a “smallish” airport and no bags to collect, we quickly made our way to the train platform. I use the word “quickly” in the most looseness of terms. In reality, we had less than 15 minutes to get from passport control and onto the train. We achieved this feat with Tom running with two carry-on bags on wheels trailing on either side of him, whilst I ran trying to keep up with him and at the same time hopefully avoiding a heart attack!!もっと詳しく
