We didn't get off to a good start in Warsaw. After getting off the overnight bus trip in a rather frazzled state, we jumped straight into a Mafia taxi (a dodgy taxi which rips you off - apparently, according to all the tourist literature we read AFTERWARDS, they are rife!). After arriving at the hotel with our lightened wallets we crashed for a bit before heading in to town. The Old Town in Warsaw was quite scenic. Amazing considering it was pretty much flattened during the war, and then rebuilt in the old style. Apart from the Old Town I don't really have much good to say about our time in Warsaw. A handy hint for Warsaw Train Station, buy your tickets in the underpass if you can. It saves you time, especially after you waited in line for half an hour only to have the person behind the counter to shut up shop for no apparent reason!

Hi Dave,
ReplyDeleteUnrelated to this post but I just checked out your "My Faves" set on Flickr. There are some amazing photos in there - well done. I couldn't really pick a fave but what did strike me was that whilst most of them had a certain "mathematical" element to them the rest were anything but. Keep 'em coming!
Cheers,
V.
