krakow, poland.

hours after i land back in stockholm, i run away to krakow, poland with the familys previous aupair. [whos mother tongue is russian, so we had a good polish lesson figuring things out!]
my great grandparents were from poland and it was exciting to see where the kulig family line came from!





we stayed in the old town, and managed to walk from the train station to our hotel doorstep without looking at a map, knowing the address of the hotel or asking for directions. quite the little travelers we were!


























i was spoiled a bit growing up with my "babci" [grandmother in polish] and enjoying all of her homemade polish foods; my sisters and i use to say, "babci, you should open a restaurant!" so while asking the hotel which polish place they would recommend for the BEST polish food, they told us a place called, "U BABCI!" so there is infact a babci restaurant in krakow poland!

there is also a hair salon called COLETTE, and shoe store called KULIG.
wowee!

[we went to the lindt factory. a little bus ride that brought us to chocolate paradise.]

sadly, the only thing open to the public was the retail shop. however, after asking the ladies at the front desk about the factory and how exciting it was to be there, they presented us with boxes of chocolate! talk about sweet!
