Again, there is just too much to see in the short time that we will be here.<br /><br />And yes, the prices seem affordable, maybe not quite as inexpensive as Albania, especially when it comes to tourist activities such as museums, they definitely cost more here, although they do have some free days for some of them, and hopefully we will catch a couple of them on the those days. ;-)Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18136052866820208847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7171307653508307040.post-33459260881530742482021-06-15T00:59:06.801-04:002021-06-15T00:59:06.801-04:00Yes, this is true and I had mentioned that to Kevi...Yes, this is true and I had mentioned that to Kevin and a couple of other people, It wasn't just the Nazi's that bombed out cities and Dresden is the one that came to mind that was destroyed in Germany. We haven't been there yet but hope to go. I believe that they left one church in it's bombed out state as a reminder of the bombings during the war.

I haven't been to Warsaw but did go to Krakow (not demolished during the war) and the Polish people are so nice. And the prices were incredibly affordable (that was about 4 years ago though).
