Today we go to Krakow and today is a public holiday, Three Kings Day!
We are taken there by our own personal guide,Stefan. The streets of Krakow are awash with Poles, who are there trying to have a good time but not appearing to do so.

| To the point |
There is a fabulous market with some delish foods, though the choice for vegetarians is somewhat limited.

| CLC(colorful local character) |
There is a parade of people with politically uncorrect blackened faces and a music concert watched on by the locals in gloomy silence and an air of impending doom.
We have a light morning tea at E. Wedel a notorious Polish hangout for those suffering with hypoglycaemia.
Stefan explains to us that the famous Polish patriot Tadeusz, was so taken by Australia that he decided to change his name to our highest peak,Koszciuzkxcsyo Kosxzckzkxkzxio Koszciusko(they have a hell of a time trying to pronounce the name correctly here).
In fact no Australian should ever try to pronounce any Polish word as this may lead to acute apoplexy!
Stefan takes us around and shows us various other sites in this attractive town.
Afternoon tea consists of pirogi, which is a type of dumpling stuffed with potatoes-hearty fare for warding off the winter chill. I love carbs inside carbs!
