Last night in Warsaw, hot sunny Sunday evening and we followed the crowds heading to the riverfront….
It was buzzing with bars, food stalls, bikes and people relaxing and soaking up the sun.
We enjoyed our last beer in Warsaw at a sandbar on the riverfront – no one we know in this snap but enjoying the evening.
This morning was an early start, and our last cheap taxi ride ($10.00 NZ) to the airport at 6.30am!
Plane on time, but at the other end our checked baggage had gone “missing” and it was over an hour before it appeared (I think it came on the next flight) our new Airbnb host was very patient and Russ a bit weary today, but we finally made it….we are right in the middle of the city, and apartment quite cute, but I will reserve my opinion of the area for now.
Russ was pleased to lie flat, and George and I went off in search of supplies from Lidl….
Back to do a bit of work catch up and then George and I left our resting Russ, again, heading for the mall in search of elusive shoes…for George. It is really chilly here and Birkenstock sandals were swapped out with Russ’s sketchers for the walk.
First chilly impressions, lots of bikes, battling with traffic and locked up everywhere.
A grey old river day, and very noisy trains.
Construction abounds – super large cranes, and big glass buildings going up… lots and lots of graffiti and homeless and quite grubby.
The mall however, for my shopaholic friends, was five stories high, about two blocks and every level had several parts… too weary to look too hard and only looking for shoes for George’s feet – not many size 47’s even here in Germany.
Tomorrow will be a new day and hopefully summer is following us, Russ feels better and we can go exploring!
