6/28/26 Gdynia/Gdansk, Poland

Rare record breaking  heat wave in Poland

This is the first excursion we join on this cruise and the reason we join is because it’s a Tri city tour (not likely we can walk 😆) and Princess offered us 20% discount

First time in Poland… The tour guide emphasized that Poland is not eastern Europe, it’s central Europe! He said complaining is Poland’s national sport 😆.

Gdańsk

World word 2 officially broke out in the city of Gdansk

  1. Main Town (Główne Miasto)

Marvel at the picturesque architecture, including the iconic Neptune Fountain and St. Mary’s Church, old town hall, museum of the ww2….. Cant believe this whole old town was rebuilt after WW2

  1. Gdańsk Crane (Żuraw)

Historic medieval port crane, which symbolizes Gdańsk’s maritime history

  1. Artus Court (Dwór Artusa) and neptunes fountain

Beautifully restored Gothic building that was a meeting place for merchants

Naptune’s fountain
At the background is artus Court

Dessert stop at Olivia Star Observatory

At the 32nd floor, we can see all the way to the Baltic sea
Our wonderful guide Chris who is a history buff with encyclopedic knowledge of world history

Gdynia

  1. Gdynia Marina

Vibrant area with restaurants and beautiful views of sailing boats.

Sopot

spa town of Poland, part of the Tricity, Sopot is known for its health spas and  sandy beach, P went all the way to the end of the pier (longest wooden pier in Europe) …. Commendable in this weather…

Cheers Poland!!
