Rather than take a taxi from the hotel where we had our meetings, we walked back to Kraków Główny station across the Rynek. It's always a pleasure to take this particular stroll; the city has a well-deserved reputation for atmospheric beauty. Late November should be well outside the tourist season - but it's not. Sightseers and visitors are still more plentiful now than in Wroclaw in July.
Earlier in the day, after arriving in Kraków, I caught this shot of a railway worker shovelling snow off the station roof. This reminded me of the tragedy in Katowice in January 2006, when, owing to the weight of snow on top, the roof of the international exhibition hall collapsed killing 65 people inside. Since then, owners of public buildings are taking no chances.
