Besides Misteria Paschalia festival there won’t be much happening in Krakow. The rhythm on the town will be changed completely. Empty streets, most of the venues and all of the shops will be closed on the Easter Sunday and most likely on Monday as well so you should make a supply. One might be interested in joining people who attend Easter Masses they usually start at 6am. On Monday don’t be surprised if you’d seen pouring water in each other on the streets, it is an old Polish custom….it is called Śmingus Dingus beware.

Happy Easter, [T]

Yes, you can see the mountains very, very far away. I swear. As usual, between the cafe and the polish milky bar “bar mleczny” my guests chose the latter for the polish experience. As usual it was good, cheap and polish. We couldn’t miss the picture with the dragon so we did it. Same with the hot chocolate (or the beer).

The shisha had problems to start but seems to have worked finaly.

More pictures of the party in the galleries. I can send you some in good resolution if you want.

I remind you that tonight I will cook for you at the hostel in Sarego street. It should be a good occasion to meet each other and eat something good (hope so). Rendez-vous : 20.00 pm at the hostel.

If you’re interested by going with me to the open air market place called “Kleparz” where I buy the food and where you can find some cheap polish “things” (mostly food and clothes new or used) we can meet at 14.00 at the hostel Sarego.

Important : I’ll try to bring with me my shisha water pipe so we can experience some turkish fruit tobacco after dinner.

We finaly had a look at the monument dedicated to this other hero of the city : ‘Dzok’, the incredibly faithful dog that stayed a whole year in the same place, waiting for his master to come back, unfortunately, the latest was dead. Finaly, I had to admit that it was still wintertime…

The cook is back from France. That means two important things :

- the free dinner for our guests will take place at the hostel on thursday night at 8 pm.  For those who would like to experience a real polish open air market, meet at 2 pm in Hostel ul. Sarego.

- there will be a walking tour around Kraków organised on friday if the weather is not too… wet. Meeting at 12.00 in Plac Na Groblach.
