Hello Baltic

Yesterday i arrived in Gdansk. A quick tour of the old town and i was off with a bunch of aussies and canadians to party the night away in Sopot (20 min train ride from Gdansk). I guess you can call Sopot the 'Cancun of Poland'. We spent the night at a beach club called Copacabana (very original). Today i took a day trip to Malbork, famous for its 13th century castle built by the Teutonic Order. They built many castles in the baltic region...roughly 100km apart (the distance a knight can travel in full armor in one day). The castle in Malbork was not only the biggest but also served as the capital.

Anyway, Gdansk is jam packed today...a bunch of large sail ships docked, hence attracting lots of tourists. Im gonna try to get a few pictures of the town and then back to Sopot for round two. Uwaga jest Sobota!!
