Monday, August 15, 2011. We arrived in Krakow. In the late afternoon feeling a bit sat and overcome. But shook ourselves and wandered off into the Old Town Square which was. But We had been down the road! End of the Line'. Life really does end here! The expectency of resettlement is violently squashed by the welcoming remarks of the camp Kommandants. You are here to die'. From far and wide! Can you count the chimneys? Each chimney is 200 persons with a lift expectency of 3 months! And Birkenhau top left,.

We would leave the German autobahn and travel on the French autoroute. We travelled through the town and its surrounding roads keeping off the autobahn until we found the main one which would take us direct to Paris. Finished 30 plus years ago. The competition is the Moulin Rouge, but I didn't like the movie so gave it...

The good road paused for a bit and the local contractors were obviously bored so played on his bike to entertain his mates. Big sheds - metal- under construction for livestock? Super highways and boats heading to showrooms nearby. Lots of sea and lakes nearby for recreation. Back into St P CBD, Whew! A bit nerve racking. Language can be tricky.

Friday, August 19, 2011. Good visibility. Sometimes the trucks just have to slow down to merge behind you and then speed up slowly to their 90Km/hr. Harvesting of grain in full swing but not the maize yet. We did see farms of solar panels. We passed many signs indicating 'Ausfahrt' which I thought was a town, but it must have covered the whole of germany as there was a 'exit' to it every 5km! Eventually the penny dropped! Two hours wasn't really enough time but was good. Then off thru country roads to He...
