Jimdouglas 28 Apr 2018 #1I have just a couple days after a cruise and flying out of Berlin so would like to visit a typical small town in Western Poland. I enjoy anything scenic or historic, and would be happy just relaxing, taking walks, and sampling the food. Grandma was born in Poland so I enjoyed Polish food growing up. I will be traveling by rail. Ideas??
