Back to Krakow!
Place: Krakow, Poland
Due to the 8 hours wait at the border crossing, I did not arrive at Krakow until 1 pm (It was supposed to arrive at 6 am). It was so late, I had to give up my original plan about making a daytrip to mountain resort town of Zakopane.
Though I do love Krakow, I thought I had already overstayed there (I stayed for 5 days and 4 nights the week before). I was ready to move on. returning here by accident did not really get me excited at all.
I went to the window at the train station and reluctantly paid that 103 Euro for the ticket from Krakow to Sighisoara, Romania (considering the cost of living in Eastern Europe, a price like that is more than outrageous). No sleepers are available for this route, I was told. Only regular compartment seats are available (the types I hate most). I bought the ticket for the train 381.
Wandering around the streets of Krakow for one last time and having my last order of Polish Pirogies (now I started to hate these things), I went for some food shopping. The ride would last for almost 20 hours, so I did need enough food and drinks.
Arriving at the platform around 10 pm, I was about to board the worst train ride in my whole life.
