Taxi to Copenhagen where I put into place my nefarious plot to embezzle the airlines. I call it "The Inverse Butcher's Thumb Scam"
and this is how it works: following check in and moving to the "honesty" self weigh in bag drop centre,
a slight upward pressure on one's luggage handle will magically convert an overweight suitcase by as much as 5kg thus eliminating the need to bother the attendants and slow down others in the queue-a win,win situation!
Following an argument with the usual Eurotrash queue jumpers we make our way to Krakow in Poland. Currency here is in the incomprehensible zloty-due to an ever so slight error involving zeroes I manage to drain my bank account at the ATM machine but am an instant zloty millionaire.
We pick up our car and drive to Stopnica to be reunited with my only cousin in the world,Frances, and her hubby, Stefan. We decide to stop at a roadside cafe for lunch; the menu was incomprehensible but I put my total knowledge of Polish to good use and order a polskie ogorki and a kielbasa and a cokiski zerowski.
Having exhausted my vocabulary we proceed to the greater metropolis of Stopnica and are reunited with my Frances and Stefan.
