Traveling around Poland - our photo stories with very personal commentary

Your observing is fine, but those photos break Polish law.

Of course not. :):) I always ask photographed people if I can use their images, most agree. The problem is that it isn`t written , only spoken, as I don`t have time to deal with paper work. So it may happen one day that somebody will withdraw the agreement.

my understanding is that if folk take up more than 30% of the frame then there may be problems.
other than that i know nothing.

Planty is a large park which encircles the Old Town, created after pulling down medieval fortifications.

Funny but the Old Town hosts more than one square. I counted six.



One of them, Szczepański Square.

There is a very popular fountain. Last year municipal guards were kicking bathing kids out due to hygenic reasons, this year I see they gave up.

  I always thought that was a communist structure

  No, they built it before the war.
  

Krakow have always thrived with culture onto all Poland. It can be seen on advertisements:

But each tower`s location is marked with a plaque. Funny.

I do not think those photos break the law as they were taken in a public place, not sure about polish law specifically ofc.,
but I had reason to check the legal aspect of this myself recently.

Shyt, what a scorcher! Yesterday we went to the lake near Krakow and the sand was so hot it virtually burnt our feet, I had to wear sandals. I don`t remember such a heat wave. Water was about 29 degrees.

When not on holidays, we go to the lake once a week. Never at the wekend because crystal clear water gets a bit cloudy when there are too many people. Family ticket costs 30 zlotys and you can have fun all day.

Hi. We are spending a week in southern Poland`s region of Gorlice as usual but I came back home for a while because one of our cats got sick and I had to take him to a vet. I didn`t know there are so many night vets in Krakow.

The weather is perfect, not too hot nor cool, but the main problem is the complete lack of mushrooms in forests - so far I have found one noble mushroom which is already dried - it smells delicious so I am thinking of making soup of it.

And I have also seen 3 poisonous mushrooms. Catastrophical drought!
Tomorrow we are going to Krynica Zdrój to get some mineral water treatment for all our stresses.


Of course that was a joke, sorry, f stop and rozumiemnic, you probably thought I was serious.


Veni, vidi, vici. Krynica hasn`t changed much since our last visit, but they are thouroughly modernising the main mineral water drinkink hall.
