For some reason WordPress, or the operator malfunctioned and I could not deliver the second part of the morning
George in front of the palace.
A little further down the side of the lake was an amphitheater and the stage in the lake..very cute.
With a view from the outdoor seating back up to the palace.
We had definitely beaten the crowds, so far we had only spied a few runners and the odd mum and pushchair. It was now almost 10am and we spotted the first walking tour. Time to head off, we had practically been VIP guests for the last hour and a half, with the palace and park to ourselves.
Next, we went towards the waterfront, to make our way back home.
We found one of those islands in the middle of the river and walked through bush, above houseboats..
A beach volleyball complex and a rather large rowing club camp.
Boats (motor and rowing) moored in the canal as we crossed the bridge with lock gates and left our island behind.
We were now on the riverfront, with riverfront beaches, all very sparsely populated…it seems like we were ahead of any crowd action this morning.
However, there did seem to be a fair bit of construction activity further along the rivers edge, with many bars being set up in a mad frenzy on a Friday morning.
Coca-Cola sand bar, no where near a beach of course, but in readiness for something.
The converse bar on a riverboat in front of the stadium on the other side….where Bon Jovi is playing tonight. Maybe there will be a party before and after (and during) on the rivers edge.
Under a couple of bridges, getting very warm and footsore (15000 steps already under our belts) we were close to home….spotted Russ out for a walk, so we all devoured a very large Kebab and headed back for an afternoon rest.
Warsaw, with a population of about 2 millions seems very sparsely populated…maybe everyone has left for the summer.
p.s. just sorted the tech problem had to buy more media space to keep the story rolling.
