And if they don't Gdansk
Well then they're no friends of mine...
Haha sorry I couldn't help myself. I had to use the song to talk about Gdansk.
Friday/Saturday
Friday we had a day off and were told that if we took the train we could go to a famous beach town on the Baltic Sea. So of course that is where I went! Three of us walked to the main train station in a Gdansk and worked out how the whole system worked. Bought ourselves round trio tickets for the day and figured out which train we needed to catch. Yeah we're conquering Poland and its language :)
Once we reached our destination it was game on. The town sort of reminded me of a Miami beach resort town. We explored the pastel buildings, the ice cream shops, the stalls selling Amber, and just the major tourist attraction that the area was. We were also able to put our feet in the Baltic Sea! Making my way around the worlds waters.
After a day on the beach we were all very much exhausted and after finishing packing that night it was to bed for us.
The next day we were to leave Gdansk :(
On our way back we made an out of the way stop at Wolf's Lair, Hitler' bunker in Poland. We drove almost two hours on dirt roads to get to the middle of no where that was Wolf's Lair. Here we explored pieces of bunkers and destroyed buildings. Hitler's base was completely destroyed by bombs. After our walking tour we took a drive through the area in an old Nazi military vehicle.
The ret of our day was spent in a bus to get back to Warsaw. Took a dinner stop at a McDonald's along the highway and kept going. We arrived back at our Warsaw hotel around 11pm.
