There are people who think that I'm a pretty okay guy. If that's the case, it might also have something to do with my Polish ancestors.
I like the Poles, at least for now. They are friendly and funny, but not overly enthusiastic. And they visibly appreciate it when a tourist tries to speak a few words of Polish.
This is my first longer visit to a country where a Slavic language is spoken. It's really difficult for me to learn a few words for everyday life. There are a lot of 'Eh' and 'SH' sounds in Polish. A written 'E' is almost always pronounced as 'Eh.' For example, there is a equivalent of the Bavarian 'Servus' that can be used for greeting and farewell: 'Cześć'. Simplified, it is pronounced as 'chehshch'. Dude!
Tomorrow we will go back to Gdansk, then there will be more photos, because the weather will be better.
The campsite is located in a pine forest behind the dune to the beach of the Gdansk Bay. When it rained, the pavement was practical. Today we are moving to a nicer part.
You can guess how windy it was by looking at Katja's hood. We soon went back to the campsite.
For the Baltic Sea, that's already a pretty decent swell.
A beer at noon; after all, we are on vacation.
First view of the old town of Gdansk after getting off the tram. The renovation is an ongoing process....
