 Trip to the local zoo.
 Train journey on the Pendolino express from Warsaw to Krakow.
 Wavell Castle in Krakow.
 Optional visit to Auschwitz / Birkenau camps.
 A trip to the mountain village at Zacopane.
 Tours of the Jewish quarters.
 A visit to the salt mines in Weilicza.
 Various museums including the railway museum in Warsaw and Schindler&
factory in Krakow, to mention just a couple.
 Much local exploration and tram rides etc.

We also enjoyed excellent food, eating out in restaurants at modest prices on most
evenings.
A good time was enjoyed by all, so sorry that Kath and Steve could not make it due to
Kaths illness.
We wish Kath a speedy recovery.
