A crazy lizard we saw crossing the road after it rained...An old polish lady approaced the help it along and we saw it safely across the ashphalt. We attempted to communicate, mostly through hand gestures, and we discovered it is a fire Salamander. I believe they are quite common in Europe. The one we saw was quite big, about seven inches!!!!

Salut, Delilah
P.S Another run in with the law! We decided to avoid the bar and indulge in some cheap Wroclaw beers from the local variety store... It seems public drinking is quite common. It was a lovely day and the boys suggested a park near the Hostel to enjoy the brew. We cracked open a few cans, were debating the Quebecois Seperatist movement having an excellent time soaking up the sun when I saw a police van pull up behind us. I motioned for the two boys to put their beers into the knapsack we had. In a matter of minutes we were surrounded by about six police. It was disconcerting to say the least. I attempted to wrangle our passports out of the bag without revealing the cans. They looked at our IDs and in broken English said no beer here please. We got off the hook, it was lucky I saw them and we hid the beers or we might of had to pay!!! Phewww....must be more careful...these were brutes...luckily they let us off....
Hi, welcome to Poland:) If you're in Wrocław and have some time, try to get to Wojslawice (you can get information in Wroclaw Botanic Garden) - perfect time for visiting it, due to its stunning azales.
ReplyDeleteKrakow is a must (about 4 hours by train from Wroclaw) and lol, don't drink beer in park (at leat openly:):)) Lucky you to see Salamander - I haven't seen it for ages!!!!
Have fun.
I love man deodorant. When I was single I used to wear it just to feel like I was with a man.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad the brutes let you guys off the hook. For some prejudiced reason I figured Eastern European police officers would be more liberal about open container laws.
PS. I'm sitting in the Adirondack chair.
