Oswiecm to Krakow

September 17

We awoke to the sound of pitter patter of rain on the roof. We went to a nearby restaurant for a good hot breakfast and thought that we ordered eggs. When the plates arrived, we realized that our three Polish words are really not enough. Our breakfast plates consisted of tomato, cucumber, cold ham, cheese and bread, which would have made a tasty lunch. The coffee was good and strong and Michelle's tea was her favourite; Earl Gray.

We left Oswiecm at around noon and headed for Krakow. Michelle's fascination with cemeteries led us to one where the grave stones were well tended; covered in flowers and some even had candles on them.

I drove there without a hitch and even managed to navigate about eight roundabouts very successfully without any swearing. We arrived at Camping Clepardia and decided to stay put for the afternoon. We walked around the site, found a large grocery store close by and enjoyed the browsing as much as the shopping.

Since WiFi is free and easy to access here, I spend some time online reading the Canadian news, reading email and checking the forecast for the next few days. Unfortunately, it looks like more of the same....rain and cool. In spite of the weather we will explore the city of Krakow tomorrow.
