Day 14: A Bit Hung.. Over
At 9:30 am, I woke up and I was hungry. We went downstairs and the restaurant was again very busy.

Over breakfast, we decided to have a laid back New Year's day. We slept in, had breakfast then I crawled back in bed.

About 1:00 pm, I was ready to finally get out of bed. My head hurt. Something about mixing different things from the 3 alcohol "food groups."



We went to the town square, where there was a Christmas market. Chase found a very nice little indoor café. I had a beer (with ice cream. I love that combo!!) while he sipped some water and had some ice cream.

I blogged for two hours at this café. This stuff takes time :)



We then took a taxi across town to the Kazmierz Galleria, a brand new mall. Although the stores were not open, the movie theaters were playing movies. We got tickets for King Kong. For this particular theater, you are assigned a row and seat number.

We had an hour to spare, so we went to "Jeff's," an American chain. Apparently, there is one restaurant in Florida, one in Warsaw and one in Kraków. Chase speculated that this was an interesting investment for the Americans. I told him this place is up and coming and Polish people are slowly getting more buying power.

He had a Reuben, while I had a large greasy burger and a beer.

Like the mall, the theater was super modern, not more than 3 years old, I would guess. It had stadium seating.

After the commercials in Polish, "King Kong" came on, with the original voices, with small Polish subtitles underneath.

The movie had very good special effects, but a light, predictable plot. The heavy burger meal combined with the heat was killing me. I must admit that I slept through several sections of the movie and I was uncomfortable for sitting for 3 hours in once place.

We didn't see any taxis outside the mall, being such a quiet night, so we decided to hoof it back to the hotel, a route we didn't know 100%, but just 20 minutes later, we were back.

I fell like total crap and went straight to bed.
