I was excited to be heading off to Krakow as I’d heard many good things about the city. Up bright & early, I had my last fun little ride on the Westin lift, then walked about 15 mins to the train station. Strange, even though there is one platform, ‘Peron 4’ for example, there are two sides to the platform & you can’t really tell which side your train will be arriving. So I asked a couple of locals, then just followed the crowd. And thankfully I managed to get on the right train.
The train trip was smooth sailing & time when by really quickly as I chatted the whole time with a Finnish guy called Peter who happened to be married to an Australian woman & who now lived in Prague. He was a travel photographer & had some fascinating insights into the places he’d been to, especially their peoples. So there were lots of things to discuss.
When I got off the train, I eventually found the tourist info centre from where I got directions to my hostel, The Secret Garden. It was based close to the ‘Jewish Ghetto’, so I jumped on a tram & rode the 5 stops south. I had a private room - no more dorms (twice is enough) - so when I got there I could spread out a bit before heading on my first tour.
