I never really thought I would be in this city. To be honest, I never thought about this city. But nevertheless, here I am.

There’s so much to write about – I’ll just mention a few things: The expansive city center was amazing: a church at one corner, the huge center building, the city tower. It was all so overwhelming. The castle (Wawel) was a prime example of mixed architecture. The cathedral was Gothic; the palace was Romanesque; there was probably a bit of every other style thrown in for good measure. There are more pubs and cafes than could be imagined and many of them are in the basements (many of which date to the fourteenth century). We ate an Italian place and had green, salty pasta. Too much to write about – I need my computer.
