Salt Lake

This is one of the smaller salt lakes down the mine.  The ultimate decider of the depth of a salt mine is the water table.  Pumping water out always happen, but eventually it's a hopeless cause.

Back To Breakfast

On our last day in Krakow we had enough time to catch breakfast in the square.  Unfortunately, we didn't realize we'd be in the middle of a half marathon if we did.  The square was absolutely packed with runners lining up to race.  We found the place we'd gone to earlier in the week just off the square and had breakfast there.  It was just as good, and nice and warm.  The tall drink was Andreas' hot chocolate.




Getting More Patriotic

This is my current daily project.  I've gotten the eagle and USA done; time to start on the flag and add more color to the border.

More Working Mannequins

More dioramas for the tourist route.  Its got a lot of this kind of thing.  I do think it funny that they even include the 18th century dressed up supervisors.

Shaping Up

The butterflies seem to be taking shape now and I've got this about a quarter of the way done.  Not going to get it done soon, but maybe before we move.

All Xed Out

Well, another ornament stitched and ready to make.  Now to get the time to make them into ornaments.

Moo Moo Sandwiches

 We weren't too hungry on our last night in Krakow, but we did want to go out to eat.  Moo Moo was recommended to us by friends, so we went.  The drinks were good, and strong.  My Long Island Tea could have had a bit less citrus.  Out food was good, even though I had to ask for the sandwich I had ordered instead of the one brought to me first.  They were very polite about it.  My tomato soup was excellent.
