We took a short ride to another section of Krakow to see the Ethnographic Museum which presented the everyday life style of the Polish people.  Now, you may be thinking ?How many museums could we be interested in??  Each museum had a different presentation of homes, clothing, tools, occupations, etc. and was set up to keep you interested in each aspect.

After breakfast we headed to the Salt Mines.  Lots of stairs going down, but the views are worth it.  Don’t worry there is an elevator that takes you back to the ground level.  Zenon dropped us off to go shopping in Old Town after which we walked back to the hotel to rest.

Today we head for Krakow.  We didn’t have to get up too early, but we had a full day.  There was a Folk Festival this weekend just outside of the city so we headed on over there.

Great breakfast. The morning meal changes each day so it was always something we looked forward to. Today we went to Dunajec Castle. This was a large castle partly surrounded by a beautiful lake. It was very well reconstructed with a lot of the rooms containing furniture.
