Good grief it's hot here in the Middle East, of Poland! Very fortunately the room has air conditioning and we have 2 king size beds so had one each and spread out, so managed to sleep ok. Breakfast is buffet style; the dining room was very busy but mum managed to get egg, sausage and beans, and a banana. I had a bowl of 4 different cereal/muesli/dried fruit/some kind of good for you seeds! Then a croissant, a pain au raisin and a piece of cake! They're probably good for you too, right?
We went by coach to the far side of the city centre so we could have a walking tour back. To sum up our guide's talk, everything in Kraków is either the biggest or oldest (and usually both) in
Poland. We finished at the castle and we were so hot we BOTH had a beer!

After our liquid lunch we went to the salt mines (personally I think that was too harsh a punishment but hey ho). This mine operated for hundreds of years. It has 9 levels; we descended, via 3 million and 4 steps as far as the third level down.  Way down there is a full size cathedral literally cut out of the rocksalt and the gift shop is way down there too. You can buy all sorts of gifts, as long as they're made of rocksalt. I didn't see the point in buying some expensive souvenir given that the first time there's a bad frost it will end up on the front steps.

But the chamber, 400 feet below the ground is apparently in the Guinness book of records because the first "indoor" bungee jump and the first ever indoor balloon flight took place in it!

Here's another picture of me with beer. I'm getting so good at selfies I could probably have taken this one myself too, but on this occasion I got my lovely assistant to assist!
