Monday 23rd August mileage 6020 Krakow Poland

Breakfast at Jan Villas was simple but adequate, and then off into town again.  Tried to get to cable car onto the top of the local mountain, but was advised by tourist office that we would have to queue for at least 3 hours so we abandoned that idea and went to see what was happening at the festival area.
Savi was pestered bz a man from jugoslavia and he was crying.  She gave him a small amount of money and later we saw him coming out of a alkohole store with a bottle tucked into his pocket and talking on his mobile phone,  probably telling his mates where there was a sucker to be fleeced !!

By mid day decided to head back to Krakow.  Bus was bigger and comfier (air conditioned etc.) which was just as well because we sat in a traffic jam for 45 mins just 30km outside Zakapane. 

Registered at the Wentzel Hotel  (very nice !!), then wandered the old town streets before getting an indian meal which was very good, and then very tired so in bed by 10pm.

Tueday morning said goodbye to Savi, then updated the blog before heading back to the last hotel where i have left my bike in their courtyard for the past week.

More later
