Howdy y’all, Nemo here. A lot has happened in a so I’m going to try and keep it so that doesn’t become brain-achingly painful to read. Here goes... We went back to Mazury for Ciocia Malgosia’s 50th, meeting a whole heap of people from all over the place. What a group of people. I was introduced to friends of the family, relatives both close and distant, and I waffled on in my nearly unintelligible Polish and they laughed and we all got along like a house on fire, both young and old. The person I got along best with was Konrad, [View Full Entry]

Those of you who know me well know that I suffer from a constant need for organisation. Spontaneity is not my strong point and doing nothing is somewhat akin to hell for me. And so the past couple of weeks have been impossibly challenging, and completely rewarding. We've spent the past few days hanging out at my aunt and uncle's farm in Mazury and pretty much enjoying the good life. Once Nemo finished writing his last blog, we took a trip to the lake and while my uncle and Nemo paddled off in a row boat to indulge in a spot [View Full Entry]

Ma-Zoo-Ry I have given up excusing the length of time between these blogs, because both you and I know that there is little time when traipsing around the country side to park yourself in front of the computer and write about everything that’s been done. So, let’s cut to the chase. It’s been two weeks, loyal readers. Two weeks since I hit the keyboard to lay some tales on you. Since then there hasn’t really been that much going on to be honest. We’re still in Poland believe it or not. We have spent most of our time in Warsaw, beginning [View Full Entry]

You're right. This blog has nothing to do with any of those things, as cool as they are. Aleks has decided that she is sick of writing the blogs about the times that nothing big and exciting is happening. We’ve reached a compromise (which essentially means I’ve acquiesced) and I’ll write the interlude blogs so Aleks can have a shot at the big time... things like Mazury and Croatia and all that really uninteresting piffle. It’s a big call for such a new-blood blog writer, but I reckon she’ll do a great job ;) Since arriving home from Krakow the this-and-that [View Full Entry]

If this isn’t my best work, then you can blame Jacek and Co. for keeping me up all night. But I shall, as I always do, endeavour to engage my responders with style and aplomb. The morning of the move back to Krakow came, as mornings generally do, and with an early start once again. Having packed our stuff the night before, we were relatively well prepared to get on the move. So after paying out rent to the lovely lady who owned the set of apartments, we made our way slowly into town around 9am. Unfortunately for our intrepid adventurers, [View Full Entry]

So there we were, avid readers, off to Zakopane, the southern Mountain town where both Kasia and Kazik’s parents live. This bus trip nearly had Aleks in nappies. She has been harping on about Zakopane since the day I met her. So for my giggling clapping co-pilot, Zakopane was like the Land of Oz: a place that she visited ten years ago, and still held memories of little log cabins and woodsmoke. She was in for a shock. More on that later. The bus trip itself was comfortable and uneventful, with the latter part of the trip consisting of Aleks grumbling [View Full Entry]

It seems like every time I wake up, I have to write a blog. But the reality of the situation is that the days are flying by so fast I keep forgetting where we’re up to in the week. I promised I wouldn’t wait this long to write again, but circumstance would have it otherwise, and this time it wasn’t just me being a lazy bum. So without further ado, I bring to you… Krakow To Zakap… Zacko… The Pretty Mountain Town Leaping out of bed, fresh faced and full of life, we bounded into the spreading daylight with train tickets [View Full Entry]

Before I forget! We have a Polish mobile number: (+48) 518 672 494 and we’re 8 hours behind Australia. So, it’s week number 2 in Warsaw and we’ve still been running around and trying to see as much as we can of the things this city has to offer. The weather has improved a whole lot, with today’s temperatures reaching a divine 25 degrees. Hooray! So we ventured out again... We’ve seen dozens of churches, including the oldest in Warsaw - St Mary's Church built in the 15th century, which still shows the scars of fires that were set to it [View Full Entry]

Alright ALRIGHT ALREADY! I know I’m bloody late. But while the rest of you have a normal life, I’m in bloody POLAND (Yes, Poland!) and running around like a chook with its head cut off. Not only that, the internet here has been quite slow for the past week as it’s the end of the month with the downloads. I’m talking like 2 minutes for a page to load slow. I’m sure you all understand. Concordantly, now that you’ve all been complaining so much about my lateness, I’m going to write an epic account of our travels that would make Sir [View Full Entry]

My turn to write on the last few days of our time in Thailand. Nemo is doing the very last of his courses today and so has left it up to me. We last left you in Ao Nang, a brilliant place where we enjoyed ourselves so much that we stayed an extra couple of days. It's made up of 2 beaches - the main touristy beach and a quieter beach called Nopparat Thara where Blue Bayou, our bungalows, were located. As we had a scooter again, we were free to travel about the area. The main beach is long and [View Full Entry]
