random photos from my travels

We were sad to leave Krakow for Frankfurt as we truly enjoyed our 4-day visit.

We watched the Jascha Lieberman Trio perform traditional Jewish music during dinner (between courses) such as "Remembrance of Kazimierz" and "Oyfn Weg Shteyt A Boym." John was thrilled to no end when they ended with the classic "Hava Nagilla." I thought he was about to burst into a clapping dance. Click here to check out Ariel's music lineup.

I had a most memorable meal at Ariel: Berdytchov soup with beef, honey and cinnamon (starter) and Carp Sephardic way sauteed with onions and mushrooms and buckwheat (main).

I convinced everyone to find a restaurant in Kazimierz (the Jewish Quarter), and not another touristy place near Main Market, for our final dinner in Krakow. Krzysztof Ingarden brilliantly recommended to one of our Japanese guests, also his friend, a restaurant called  Ariel, and asked us to book for its concert dinner.

This, in my opinion, is the best view of the Manggha Museum.

After walking nonstop for 7 hours with Paulina we hobbled back to our hotel across the river that has a spectacular view of Wawel at night.
