Krakow Poland is a culturally rich city teaming with restruants, museums, cathedrals and of course, in the old city, tourists.  Every night the old city square beneath the hostel is thriving with people and things like pupet shows, fire dancing, breakdancing and lots of art dealers.  Each old building has a beer garden beneath it full of inebriated tourists.  It's quite a spectacle.  Yesterday I visited the museum of the Aushwitz concentration camp, and then an old salt mine that is an UNESCO world heritage site.  Inside the salt mine were ornament salt carvings of Polish national heros, and even a huge salt cathedral.  It was amazing.  The guide said that many famous people have visited the salt mine such as: George Bush and the composer Chopin.  Tomorow its me off on a train to The Check Republic to a city called Olomouc.
