Oh my goodness cant believe i havent been on in like 4ish days!
well im going to work backwards (i think?!) lou and sarah have just left.... gutted!!! missing lou like mad already (and you sarah of course!), it's been sooooo hot here today, too hot some might say, but it just started thundering as those 2left! god didnt want them to leave either! just spent today chilling and strolling round old town - krakow is amazing! i love this city (but your hands up for prague! hahaha! get it!) we did a bit of sunbathing on some grass by a river (recent late nights are catching up on me!) which was really nice! had tea out for lous birthday which was lovely... went to the old square and sat outside - me and heather had some traditional polish dishes which was cool and delish! picked heather up from the airport this morning which all went smoothly - feels like shes been here for days already and she is very well prepared and listened to all our advice which is brill! had to get up at 7 to pick her up
i didnt get to bed til 230ish this morn as a brother and sister wed got friends with left this morn and talia, sarah and lou went to bed and i took a pen down to get liams email and ended up chatting to him til the early hours without realising! that boy can talk for australia, but im pretty good competition! lol.
yesterday we went to austwizh (as you know mum) which was pretty hard hitting... so sad. yea. horrible. anyway, we went with andrew too so there was 4 of us which was cool (he's next to me now lou!!!), we were meant to go at 9am but as soon as we got home at stupid o clock the night before we didnt get an awful lot of sleep and after about 3hours of sleep i had the urge to get up and have a shower and wash my hair and get dressed! lol. so i spent the morn just hanging out with the americans and talia and liam. then went to austwizh in the noon. had tea out (again with andrew - the australian in our room) just to a dirt cheap american diner type thing as we were starving and it was like 10pm!
erm... we arrived in krakow on friday (after our detour via warsaw! which im soooo glad we did! we arrived at like 11pm and at night it was amazing and the hostel was gorge!) we got here, dumped our stuff, checked our emails etc... this hostel is v v v nice! best one yet! glad im here for 3nights, met the best group of people, but its dead tonight.. only me, heather and andrew in our 8 bed dorm. chatted to an american girl when we got here who said she was part of a group who were studying in prague but had just come here for the weekend and she invited us out as they were all going, but we knackered after all the travelling so we said no! spent the day exploring krakow... i really do love it here! lous decided shes getting married here!!! hahaha (minus the tourists though sarah right?!) got back to the hostel and made ourselves some pasta with cheese, a tomato sauce and bread for tea which was good. got chatting to some more of the american group (they're all ace!) and decided we all wanted to go out with them after all! got showered and changed and went to the common room (soooo nice, like a living room with a huge flatsveen tv - same as ours at home but loads bigger!) and we met talia and liam for the first time (australian bro and sis, hes 21, shes 24 who have relatives in poland, so have visited them and are now doing the rest of europe together) and dan and bobby (2 of the american group) and andrew. had a really good laugh! all the rest of the american group said they were ready to go, but dan needed to get something so he went and we all waited and the rest of the group left without either party realising so it just ended up being the 8 of us, but it was a really good sized group and nice mix too! went to some polish bar first and then on to a club - we all had a really really good night! felt so safe too! bobby is like huge, but like the friendliest guy ever! hes like the bfg! love him! so he looked after us girls! he's a bouncer back home so that was good. however, we all got split up at the end and andrew walked us girls home, bobby and dan got a taxi and so did the other 2 but a diff one... found this out the next day - we couldnt understand how they got back before us?! anyway, bobby was feeling sick so he decided to stay outside so he wouldnt make a mess inside (bless him!) but he ended up getting mugged!!!! hes like the hugest guy big rugby build but he was passed out on the pavement and (we watched the security tape - the staff here are ace!) these 4guys circled him for ages, then one grabbed his neck while the others got all his cards, passport, money and even watch and legged it, but thew funny thing is bobby slept through all this! we couldnt stop laughing!! he had no sleep that night as had to go to the police station... luckily some random found his cards and passport so he got those back, but hed already cancelled his cards by that time which sucked! out of all the people he was the least likely to get mugged, it was mental! they left yesterday, but as they're in prague, they've given us their address and directions as they have an apartment and invited us to stay, but we've already booked our hostel so not sure what to do - 2free nights though?! heather hasnt met them though, but theyre so easy to get on with! def meet up with them either way!
we worked out today that we're going to be in prague for 5hours at the same time and lou and sarah and then for the same in salzburg which im sooo happy about! be lovely to catch up with them!!! also when we're in vienna, liam and talia are there so prob catch up with them which'll be v cool! you meet so many ace people! im loving every second - except the one where we had to say bye to lou and sarah! lol. missing you 2 already!!
anyway, may get myself to bed as we're on a sleeper to prague tomorrow and doubt we'll get a good nights sleep and had too many late nights so think a lie in is in order tomorrow!
erm... forgotten what you asked! lou says thanku jas! and yes she text tom back - her phones is being daft! omg spice girls!!!! get lou a ticket too! she can be the 5th! o checkpoint charlie is the point on the berlin wall where people had to go to cross between east and west germany. you had to have certain documents etc and some families were split up, but weren't allowed to cross the wall so the museum was about the methods they tried to cross it and just what happened there - so much writing! think that's it! just been told theres some yorkshire people in the lounge so going to go and meet them! also the girls in our room when we arrived were from sheffield and had a friend in common with sarah! v bizarre!
oki doki... love to you all xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
