<div class="quoting">Bartolome:

An American F - 5 with Vietnamese colours ? I've never been in Kraków's Aviation Museum, I must visit it some day.</div>

Yes, it`s Freedom Fighter. North Vietnamese captured it when invaded the South and tried to adopt it to Soviet armament. Polish avaition experts received the plane to check out what can be done. Today it is exhibited in the Museum together with another plane, Dragonfly.


A pilgrimage to some Bloody Holy Place ?

To Częstochowa which is not bloody but a place respected by most Poles, even non-believers.


<div class="quoting">telefonitika:

the 2nd photo down post 84 its an underground rave ... :D</div>

It`s not underground. It is a salt cave, a place where you are supposed to get healthy by inhaling vapours from salt scattered all over the floor.

the third picture is a human catapult lol

Not human but a bucket catapult - you throw a bucket into the well with its help.

<div class="quoting">McCoy:

pukawka, hit kazdego odpustu od lat</div>

Exactly. They have been producing the same design for 100 years now, or more.

Some things don`t change and that`s wonderful.

More riddles:

1. This ship is in the centre of Krakow. How?

2.

3. What is the old man doing?

pawian:

1. This ship is in the centre of Krakow. How?

Looks like Błonia, perhaps it was brought by truck or assembled on site? Marking an aneversiery of the royal ship that used to go to the capital via the Wisła?
(just a complete guess)

pawian:

2.

Do you put the cheese in the middle, eehhh just for eh fun?

pawian:

3. What is the old man doing?

He is looking for his marbles?.
He is trying to find water under the ground with sticks?.(probably not, he only has one stick)
Perhaps he is looking for a snail or something that is found under leaves?
He is collecting rubbish?

Your guess is quite correct. It was the ship made of beer aluminium cans for the annual Recycling Festival in Krakow.

2.

No cheese. I make a face and all creatures run for cover :):):)

3. What is the old man doing?

:):):) Actually, he is removing leaves and stuff from the vicinity of the bench where he is going to sit and relax, admiring the views around.

This is a photo thread, nothing serious just whatever you like to show us.

The last one is a photo I took 2 seconds ago, it is the view here in Poland.

Here is one of Krakow and a few of wilicka salt mines.
Everything is made of salt

Maybe we should limit it to just photos?

Excuse me Spade, for the confusion I just kinda rushed into this without thinking.

I used to live in Krakow for 2 years and I would go to work each day and everyday I would see something new.
Some new sculpting or design on a blackened building. Some figure above a window, it is more beautiful than I can show but I will try.
I have found a load of these photos and I will share them now.
Some are crap photos but you will get the picture (all puns intended).
I love the "Dong Do" Chinese places here.
Or the lads holding up the building.

more of Krakow.
The first two sculpting are close ups of the building in the next photo.
Doh, it is the same photo twice of the sculpting, my bad

You will have to excuse the poor quility of the photos, I never did intend to use them for anything but I see now that it might give people an idea of the grandeur of Krakow.

According to a popular 20th century legend, during one of the Mongol invasion of Poland (usually the invasion of 1241), Tatar warriors approached the city. A guard on the Mariacki church tower sounded the alarm by playing the Heynal, and the city gates were closed before the Tatars could take the city by surprise. The bugler, however, was shot in the throat and did not complete the tune. According to the legend, that is why it now ends abruptly before completion.
