Finally Back To Temari

 I had started this temari way back at the beginning of the year and finally finished it this last week.  It's made with some overdyed pearl cottons that are pretty rare, and, because I had bought only one of each color, I had to be creative with its use.  It feels good to get back to temari.


Eating At Papryczki 5

After touring Wawel Castle, we asked our guide where she would eat lunch - and went there.  This was the place.  The second shot was the view from our table.  It was pretty and just off the main square.  As you can see, the meat and cheese tray was absolutely gorgeous and  tasted very good, too.  Look at the size of those capers!  Our pizzas were gooey and good and worth the wait.




Down The Mine - With A Camera

 We went down the salt mine in Krakow last year but didn't bring the camera.  This year, we did the same miner's route and brought it!  Andreas  took lots of photos of salty caves.  These are at the beginning of  the tour.

Little Diamonds

Filling in with little diamonds on the central petal.

Korean Krakow

 The Lindners were on a mission to find Korean food in Krakow, and they found a bibimbap place a couple of blocks from our apartment.  We went with them to eat.  It was run by a Korean woman with the help of a couple of young college students.  The food was good and Kathy said it tasted very very good and was close to what she makes.  It was good enough that we went back a couple more times while we were in town.  I got the chicken; Andreas got the bulgogi - beef.



The Dragon

 There is a dragon at the mouth of the cave under Wawel Castle.  It even flames!  The sculpture is definitely modern, but it's a neat little thing.

Just The Border

Still working on the border only, but I have a lot of the border done.  Time to start working on the inside.
