Here is finally a continuation of the summary of the three-cities tour. After Prague, we went for three days to Krakow, Poland. It is a very simple but beautiful city. A few parts of it strangely reminded me of Minneapolis, actually, which is random.
Anyway, the people in Poland were very friendly, and I felt very comfortable there. It was the least dazzling and fancy of all the three cities, but that can be a good thing. And the lack of tourists was a wonderful change from Prague.
We toured a castle, which you will see in one of the pictures, and we went to the salt mines, which was a site like none other. Auschwitz was what I was totally NOT looking forward to because when I went to Dachau it was really emotional for me. Auschwitz was even worse, especially because one guy in the program had a grandfather who was in Auschwitz. But it was good to go and get a fuller impact than just from reading about it in social studies classes.
I will conclude this with a bunch of pictures now 😊

Cloth hall
Was the cloth hall indoors or outdoors? Are the salt mines still mining salt?
