Easter has Come and Gone

Monday dawned 10F colder than the previous days and spitting rain from a thick looking sky. I was scheduled to leave at 17, and since my friends had things scheduled in the afternoon I'd need to drag my rollie around all day... ALSO, Easter Monday is a holiday in Poland, so probably not a lot going on... I decided I'd leave early, get back home.

I said goodbye to Leanne. I had such a great time and I hope she did too!

I headed to Glowny (gWUV neh), the main train station / bus station / fabulous mall, taking photos of things I wanted to remember about Krakow along the way.

All commerce except the food in the train station was closed for the holiday, and I was able to swap out my bus ticket for an earlier one AT HALF THE PRICE.

I at a burger at Mickey D's and waited 45 minutes for my ride.

As I was driving away I was thinking — how sad if this is my last trip to Krakow. I truly love this city!

The bus ride from Krakow to Hooterville was mostly on 2-lane roads through the countryside. Again I experienced how Poland is miles and miles of beautiful rolling farmland, as far at the eye can see. It's easy to understand why Germany, Russia and Austria have coveted these lands for millennia.
