I spent two nights in Krakow, moving to a cheaper hotel for the second night. It is a beautiful city with what they say is the largest city square in Europe. Its surrounded by pavement cafes and upmarket shops, but food and drink is amazingly good value. I was told I got ripped off by paying GBP 2.50 for a 10 minute cab ride - but if that is my biggest mistake all trip I will be very happy.

A waitress offered to show me the nightlife when she finished work - at midnight.... but I don't exactly have to get up for work in the morning :) So a big thankyou to Magda for her work for the Polish tourist industry - very helpful and a lot of fun.
