Uh-Oh June 23 – Error to be Corrected

Return to Krakow – May 24 & 25
Friday was a restful day, well probably not for Marek who was driving and trying to listen to the very strange directions from the GPS – somehow most right turns were “bear right.” Unfortunately “bear right” also meant just that … Continue reading
