Something Polish


Last week some friends and I travelled to Poland for the weekend. There was a long holiday in Hungary and we made use of the opportunity. I probably will not have any more holidays since exams are coming soon., even if I did have any breaks, I'll probably stay put.
Anyway, back to this trip. We went to the city of Krakow. Even though it isn't the capital of Poland, it is referred to as the cultural capital and I couldn't agree more. There's so much history in that city and I absolutely loved the time I spent there.

A friend of mine (a frequent reader of this blog, you know who you are :)) kindly asked me to take pictures of things other than buildings when I travelled. And thats when I realised that I bombard my readers with a lot of buildings and the history surrounding them.

Well, that was a good thing, cause it just made me more creative and I'd like to share some of the photos I took. I took a lot of cathedral photos by the way, however, I won't share those.

So I hope you enjoy these ones :)
The are a lot of street musicians in Krakow
I saw this really cute dog all dressed up, even with shoes. I couldn't resist taking a photo.
Street market with lights.

And then off to the Rynek square. There were so many people out because the weather was amazing. However, it was the children and the pigeons that caught my attention. 
They just tried to scare the pigeons away.







Some birds on a slab on the Vistula river.
Prepare for landing :)

Vltava River

 Vltava river is the longest river in Czech. It is crossed by 18 bridges and that includes the Charles bridge. I absolutely fell in love with the river, it looked so beautiful and the sun set was just stunning. I stood there for more than 40 minutes, watching the birds go about their business, till the cold started to get to me, then I left. I took a bunch of pictures and would like to share some with you.

The Sun looks so pretty. Remember never look at the sun directly ;)
