Well, I was unaware until just before our departure to Gdansk!
We arrived in Gdansk on a rather cold Friday night. It was so late by the time we arrived that we barely saw anything of the city, and since it was our first time in Poland, I must admit we didn’t know what to expect. Nevertheless, the four of us—Lloyd, Georgia, Chris, and I—had used a birthday celebration as an opportunity to visit this beautiful city. Consequently, we were quite eager to explore Gdansk properly the very next morning after breakfast, of course!
