Today was a long but fun day!
We bit Taia goodbye early this morning and then Lesley and I headed out for a shopping trip. I found an amazing pair of shoes that needless to say again are pretty amazing. :) We wandered through the Krakow mall for hours, (it was huge!) on a quest for something for her boyfriend. We eventually found it, as well as something for my little bro.
Lesley was tired and needed to get ready for her flight home later in the afternoon, so I left her at the Hotel and headed to do my last bit of sightseeing: Wawel Hill. I wasn't really in the mood to go as I was tired and it was really hot but I knew if I didn't go I would regret it. I loved it! It was so beautiful! I didn't have a lot of time or money left so I wasn't able to see all of it but it was amazing nonetheless. The castle and Cathedral were beautiful: I got to see the tombs of the Polish royalty as well as how they would have lived in their state rooms.
Afterward, I wandered around for a bit, checking out stores I hadn't gone into yet and taking pictures of pretty things. I was also looking for a bakery that sold John Paul II's favorite cakes. I wasn't able to find one but I do have the recipe so I'm going to try making them myself someday soon! I was pretty tired by 6pm so I just grabbed a sandwich and headed back to the Hotel where I lounged around and watched some Polish television for a bit.
My flight leaves early in the morning, so I need to be up around 3am so now it's off to an early bed!
