Poland

Took an overnight ferry to neighbouring Poland over the weekend. Poland architecture reminded us a little of Budapest. Visited the tricities- Gdańsk, Sopot and Gdynia. Polish cuisine was terrific- cheap,warm and great, more than made up for the lack of sightseeing!

Gdańsk was the prettiest of them all...






Not so much sightseeing (thankfully) in Gdynia and Sopot (more known for its summer seaside resorts).
The temperature on the board below says -6 degrees, and slight snow at times...now you know why I said thankfully there were not much things to see!




Food! It was walk, eat eat eat.. walk, eat eat eat... tried out all the polish food we could find..

Pierogi- almost like our dumplings; Gołąbki- stuffed cabbage with cheese and rice; Naleśniki- crepes with cheese

Borscht- Beetroot Soup; Zurek-Sour Rye Soup;

Sernik- Cheesecake
