Wroclaw, Poland

We got to Wroclaw, Poland yesterday (July 14) after a sweaty train ride from Berlin. Looking at the Polish country side we weren't sure if we had made a mistake coming to Poland, as the small towns and train stops looked very sketchy. However, once we got into Wroclaw (a bigger city, 100,000 people) it didn't look nearly as sketchy.

We checked into our hostel, which has amazing AC, and then went grocery shopping. We were so hungry and everything was so cheap that we decided to have a feast. We bought really cheap watermelon and a XXL pizza and ate the night away. 

Today (July 15) we saw much of Wroclaw. It is a very nice city with a gorgeous town square. It is so colourful and the buildings have such character.

In the town square there were hoses spraying out water. People could walk through the spray, and kids were playing in it, in order to deal with the heat (although it looks cloudy it was still 35 degrees).

We went strolling along the river and in between sites we ran into malls to cool off. We also skipped lunch and opted to get ice cream instead. It was so good!
 
Tomorrow we are off to Krakow.
