Skip Dinner, Go For Breakfast

We didn't get to Krakow on Monday night as planned.  Instead, we allowed ourselves to be bumped and received 500 euros and a free night with dinner and breakfast at the NH Vienna airport hotel.  As per my post yesterday, we had already had dinner a few hours before and weren't really hungry, but we decided to go look anyway.  Dinner was miserable looking!  There weren't any real straight up meats.  The pastas looked pasty.  Lots of fish, but we don't eat fish.  I had salad.  Andreas even had salad.  It was that bad.

 Breakfast, on the other hand, was much better.  There was a large selection of fresh fruit.  The eggs were fresh.  Even the wait staff were perkier.  Lots of fresh juice, too, and pastries.  

We arrived late to both meals, so it wasn't a difference of timing in that they were at the end of serving.  It was just that dinner was that bad.  At both meals, they were still putting out food when we left.

Catching Up Finishes

I have a small flurry of finishes and it's making me feel better about progress.  This is already back from MolDeco (they're fast!) and ready to be wrapped as a gift!

Topped

The top border is complete!  Now I can start really working on the cute gargoyles.

At Vienna Airport

 We had time to eat between our flights on the way to Krakow from Chisinau last month.  Vienna's airport food is overpriced, of course.  All airport food is.  This, though, was also bland.  We both had goulash and it just didn't have much spice!


Seminary Area

Between Krakow's Old Market Square and Castle Wawel are several small seminaries.  We walked past them on our way to the castle during the walking tour.

Finally All Forted Up

Yay, two milestones on this!  First, my Neon Rays Plus came so I could finish the Fort Worth.  Second, the border is done.  Celebration all around.
