Trip to Gdansk: Travel Day

Today was our travel day and our first night in Gdansk (Danzig).

I was up at 6am to shower, finish packing and have breakfast before making our way to the bus station for the first leg (to Warsaw). There's a taxi stop 1 block from our apt, and usually they're lined up in Volkwagens and BMWs waiting for customers... but this morning... nothing, nada, nyet, nie.... So we walked a few blocks through the park - me carrying my rollie bag where the snow is too deep to roll - and were able to flag down a cab in front of the cathedral. Seven zloty later, we're at the bus station with 10 minutes to spare.

We take a big coach from Radom to Warsaw on a major interstate highway, no biggie. Wait 90 minutes in a coffee shop, then 10 minutes on the platform because our train is late, and then we're on the train to Gdansk.
