Tyskie & Sprite

It has been about a week since the big break up. Colin and I are enjoying the time with our friends.
Jan and I are having a great time in Poland. So far, we've been to Krakow and now we are in Gdansk. Krakow is like a fairy tale. There is a huge castle with legends involving fire-breathing dragons and all the rest of it. The old town also had a huge wall around it with a moat, which is now a lovely garden circling the old town. The Old Town Square is the largest in all of Eastern Europe and best of all, the beers are cheap. Jan and I have nicknamed our trip several things: "The Tyskie and Sprite trip", since I drink the beer Tyskie and she drinks sprite; or the "Find the free WC trip", since Jan has to go all the time and all the public ones cost a buck; and lastly "The nuns and pregnant ladies trip", since everywhere we look there seems to be a nun or a preggo lady.
Gdansk is lovely so far. Today we took a day trip to the Malbork Castle which is the largest of all Medival Castles. It was rebuilt after WWII and they did a great job.

Colin and the boys seem to be having a riot in Czech, though I'm not sure where they are at this moment...hopefully I don't get an email soon to bail them out somewhere!!

Keep in touch all, next stop: The Bialowieska National Park!
