This morning I had a little time before my train, so I hung around
with Ari and her friend before I had to gather my stuff and a few supplies for
my train ride to Krakow. A soft pretzel and fizzy water in hand, I am off to
the train station.
The train station was a bit confusing. I got a ticket, headed to
the platform and freaked out when at the sight of what I thought was my ride
for the next six hours. The train was ancient! It had no windows, tons of
graffiti, and was probably older than my dad. I asked the platform attendant and
in his limited English he tells me to wait, something else will arrive. Here we
are 10 minutes to go time and I am still staring at this ugly train and now
worried that I am in the wrong place and headed the wrong way to nowheresville
on the train that pulled up at the exact time my ticket was set for departure.
However, I didn't end up in nowsheresville. I ended up in Krakow
at about nine. Found my hostel, bought a few beers and relaxed in the common
room. It was a thankfully anticlimactic ending to self-induced stressful day.
Here are few pictures I took before getting on the train this
morning.
