So, from Loket, it was back to Prague to catch a 10 hour night bus to Warsaw, Poland. Arriving at 5:30 AM anywhere is not much of a treat, but try a country where you don't speak any of the language and you have no idea where the bus station you arrived at is.
Not to worry though, all part of the fun of travel. At our hostel, our beds were not going to be ready until 3PM, so we took a walk into the old town.
In WW2, apparently 85% of this city was destroyed. Probably the most devasted city from the war. The locals actually rebuilt this area of town, to look very similar to the pre-war buildings. The amazing part is that there was no funding for this construction from the city, and they built these houses in their spare time, after work.
This is the old town square (Stare Miasto Rynek). Very colourful and a great place to just hang out and people watch. We did find a great little pierogi (perogi) place, and had some of these delicacies the size of my palm. We love the perogies!!! *Stub
