Thursday 15th August 2013

We set off fairly early and had a nice drive to Kracow with very little disruption.   Only when we arrived in the town centre and Doris the sat nav failed again. A local taxi driver showed us the way. We were so glad that today is classed as a public bank holiday in Poland. This meant that the main roads were really quiet and even the motorway was clear.


We arrived at the camping Clepardia site in the centre of Kracow. The lovely Lucas offered us the free wi-fi password and details in English of the local sights and bus and tram routes. As its a bank holiday everything is closed today so tomorrow we will explore as we have a few days here.

The only problem wad that John parked the van up on the chocks and then forgot to put on the handbrake. As Laine was getting the beer from the fridge, the van rolled off the chocks but luckily the van stopped as it smacked into a tree and slightly damaged the bike rack.  As you can imagine the air was blue and Laine was giving up motorhoming after all the bad luck on this
trip, but we picked up her dummy and gave her it back.
The prize for rooting out bargains for this trip must go to Chuck who managed to find some very palatable 6% beer for only 31p. We will send him shopping again. We have decided to stay on the camping Clepardia site for the weekend. Its a beautiful place close to a local open air Lido for swimming and transport. We even have free washing machines so all the laundry and bedding have been refreshed for the journey.
