Remember when I told you, about my epic plans, about my epic trip, that were epically shattered into epic number of pieces? Actually, this epic trip was truly epic. It took me one month to get over it, I'm lying because I'm not over it yet and now I am finally able to tell you something about a trip to completely detached from reality city of Gdańsk.
The city itself is pretty nice. Not beautiful, as in my opinion Cracow, but very very nice. It also has some magic, but in Gdańsk there is this unique atmosphere of stopped time. Old Town is pretty big. Bigger than we have in Poznań, and much more mysterious.
If you'd like to look for a place to drink with friends till late night, there was maybe one or two. Instead of this you could easily find a man playing his guitar in The Green Gate & join him for a song or few.

W booked an apartment right after we knew about new date of the concert. It was hard to find something not that expensive & available for this long weekend, but we did it. Funny fact: the evening before our trip,
