Last post regarding Wroclaw! =P
So while we were walking around during the weekend, we notices some curious little guys in hidden places...little gnomes! Turns out art involving gnomes has been turning up all over Wroclaw since the 80's due to the Orange Alternative Movement. They would paint gnomes over the communist graffiti as a mean of peaceful protesting. More recently a local artist created and placed these little guys all throughout the city, take a look!..
Here are photos of the Anonymous Pedestrians Statue ("Transition") on the street close to the train station.
On Sunday, as we were walking back to the train station to head back to Warsaw we decided to stop into this mall. Drew had read about it online before we came and read that it has a great view of the whole city atop the roof. So we decided to check it out. We were very bummed to find that when we got up to the roof it was pouring rain =( But that didn't stop us, we wanted some pictures! So I used my scarf to cover my head and camera. And then within 5 minutes the rain completely stopped, it was magical. I must mention that God has really been on our side while traveling lately. Guiding us while we run to catch our trains just in time and pushing aside clouds for the sun to be out for us. Quite amazing!
Anyways here are some photos inside the mall and while on the roof...
(Drew wanted to pose like they did in the one scene in the Hangover haha)
The rest are photos heading to the train station on the way back to Warsaw!
And that concludes our trip to Wroclaw. (Finally, right! haha)
Do widzenia!
