I arrived at Krakow Glowny (pronounced gWUV-neh) and waited for my friends at the Mickey D's behind the big globe. After we ran in circles trying to buy public trans passes, got some bills changed to coins so we would have 'Exact Change' for the public trans pass machine, found a trans system office to explain where we'd find the proper stop to catch a bus to our AirBNB, we gave up and just took a cab to our apartment.

Located on a quiet street near a park, we met the young owner and her 6-year-old daughter outside and they showed us into our FABULOUS apartment. 3 bedrooms (no sitting room) and a kitchen. Almost new. Fabulous bathroom. HOT HOT HOT water. Adequate plugs so that everyone's electronics can charge. A TV in every bedroom. Jeesh. I'm not in Kansas-ski anymore!

We stored our shit, analyzed our public trans options to get to our Vistula boat tour and headed out.

What a fabulous day for a 90 minute ride on the river. And the sun set at 7:30 pm so we had plenty of time! (One small note, while it was beautiful, there weren't any announcements or documentation of what we were seeing along the banks. So I didn't learn anything.)

We then strolled into the main central square, Rynek, where we found an "Easter Market" much like the Christmas Market from when I was here before... only this time there were Easter tchotchkes instead of Christmas tchotchkes, warm weather food instead of cold weather food, ice cream instead of hot wine.... But most of the vendors were the same.

We strolled around and looked at the artists work -- many more than at Christmas -- and decided we'd come back tomorrow.

The girls were crashing with jetlag, so we headed to dinner at a Georgian (doh!) Polish restaurant. Where the girls had a ginormous plate of pierogi and I had zurek in a traditional bread bowl. Delish!!

A pop into a grocery store, and then we fell into bed!
