Day 3: Krakow

Wonder of wonders, I was actually able to get up early today and make all my connections to get to Schipol on time for my flight to Poland. Of course, that meant that my flight got delayed. On the bright side, it did give me time to check out the Rijksmuseum exhibit at the airport, and pick up a few chocolates from Neuhaus. They're obscenely expensive, but obscenely good.

I haven't formed much of an impression of Poland or Krakow, yet. So far, it's just been a bus ride in from the airport and intermittent stormy rain that has me reluctant to go outside, because the hostel is nice and warm and has free Internet access. What I did see of the town walking to my hostel (and I saw a good bit of it, since I missed my bus stop and had to trek in 20 minutes) seems really lovely, and the Rynek Glowny especially is quite impressive.
