Overland to visit Stalag Luft III.
The other part of yesterday spent in Kłodsko Old Town…
Along this street which came in handy was a Bank & ATM to be able to get some Polish Currency to pay for the car park and a few other items!...
Then after getting the cash we head over to the town square….
With this elongated Ice Cream, Coffee, & Hot Dog Truck that looked like it had never moved in a long time as the front tyre on the other side was nearly flat!....
Then after going off down one of the side streets we come to….
With the view on each side looking down and along the river….
As we look back the other way we can see one shop on the left hand side at the end of the bridge that specialises in second hand clothes brought over from the UK and being sold for higher prices here, while there is a second shop on the opposite corner with more designer labelled clothes in from the UK!....
Next was a church with a turbulent history, of which there seem to be a number in different towns/cities!....
In Grottger Street, at the height of the second floor, you can see this Wolf with its tongue hanging out. A legend said that there would be a time when the wolf will drink water from the Nysa river, and it happened in 1977, when the river rose over 8 meters!...
A little Fiat ‘Hot Rod’!….
Another bridge into the town centre….
This doorway entrance was rather strange as it was set forward by around 2 feet as though the rest of the previous building fell down and the house behind was built but the doorway was never removed!....
Lunchtime, and it was a late lunch of Polish Goulash Soup followed by a Spinach & Cheese ‘Pancake’ with Salad, while to drink which I forgot to include in the picture was a drink made of Celery, Kiwi & Apple Juice and it was rather nice, while the food was very tasty and filling! Cost was under £4 ($5.60)….
Lunch over and as we went back in another direction we see this other building….
The front of the Town Hall….
Then along the side of the Town Hall….
We then turn left at the second side street which shows us as we get to the end a short Tunnel….
While directly in front is the side gate to another church….
After reading the information on the plaque we went inside….
Then it was back to the carpark and head off to the Supermarket for some fresh vegetables before we went back to the campsite….
