Sunday in Gdansk with Mike

Mike and I took the train to Gdansk from our apartments in Sopot. My AirBnB is in Sopot and so is Mike’s apartment. Yesterday was about walking and exploring Gdansk on foot.

Perched on the northern coast of Poland along the Baltic Sea, Gdansk is a pretty historic city that’s filled with cobbled streets, historic buildings and plenty of yummy places to eat. It seems the kind of city that’s great to visit at any time of the year. Fall is in full swing and they are even starting to prepare for their European Christmas market; in the summer, it looks like a great place to chill after a sunny afternoon at the beach in Sopot.

This building stands out. It is the crane (Zuraw). This crane was used hundreds of years ago to load cargo into ships. The hulking mass is a symbol of Gdansk’s days as an important trading city. The pirate ship is the CZARNA PERŁA. I don’t think I will go on it, but it was fun to see.
