Our first Trip

We had barely touched down on the other side of the pond before we were off traveling and seeing the world. Our first stop: Krakow, Poland for Svava Maria & Nic's wedding. It was a traditional polish wedding with a traditional polish, icelandic, and belgian reception. The festivities lasted until 5am when we finally got to catch a few hours of sleep. Here's a picture of the bride and groom during their first dance.


When we weren't attending wedding festivities we got to see some of Krakow's historic charm. We didn't know much about it before we went but its definitely going to be a stop for us on future trips! Here is a picture of the view from the castle in Krakow:

The town square in Krakow was beautiful. There were markets everyone and lots of outdoor cafes. We took full advantage of the beautiful weather and had a few beers outside. The picture on the left is the marketplace in the center of the town square. At night its all lit up!








Finally, a picture of Javier in front of our hotel which was just around the corner from the main square.

I spent a weekend in Krakow a few years ago and loved walking by the river. Did you make it to the salt mine? That was a highlight of my trip.

We're so happy you could come to our wedding! Please keep blogging so we can share your experiences in Germany.

Hugs,

Svava Maria and Nicolas
