Krakow, Poland

10/7/25-10/9/25



We are in Krakow, Poland

On the way to Old Town Krakow

 



Found the elevator in the building that was built in 1475



 

French Onion Soup in a French restaurant

 

 

 

A hallway heater for a good night sleep

A luxury private coach came to pick us at 5:00 am for a ride to and from Auschwitz, the main focus for Jim's visit

There were hundreds of people ahead of us!




An empty parking lot that would open later

The reception hall

Look at this line!

We have been in line for more than 90 minutes

After purchasing our tickets, we waited in the cafeteria

Jim is making this historical walk at 10:30 am

Plants from the 1940s


Back to the top



This is the gate that thousands of people walked through and died behind it





There is a tower next to the gate

 

There was a camp orchestra?!

 

Escapees were standing at this point before they were punished

 

 

This urn is holding ashes of a five year old boy

 

 

Someone lives very close to this camp now

 

A plaque about how women were treated here

What about that one red shoe?

 

Lots of people were shot against this wall

 

This is the roll call booth to keep everyone accountable

 

The map of the crematorium

 

We were out from the very sad situation

Back to the top


Time to get back to the 21st century Krakow

Our coach driver told us about this castle turned stand alone hotel

Lunch at Morskie Restaurant near the border of Old Town

Lots of wood items in this fancy restaurant

 

Kaii took a solo walk after lunch, and look!

Wow!


This shop has guns and swords

Back to the top

 

There is a Chopin Concert Hall across from our hotel



Very close to Czech Republic now

Back to Auschwitz and had a delay for more than two hours

Here is a train to Cracovia (Krakoviak, the folksong), after we were told to leave the DIRECT TRAIN and find our own way to Prague and we had no reservations!

 



One more stop to Czech Republic

Back to the top




We have made it to Czech Republic and still going west
