The Colours of Poznan

In the middle of Poznan, Poland, is the Market Square which draws tourists during the summer, students during the year, and locals all year round. Each restaurant has an outdoor patio area right in the square and service is not rushed at all. You are expected to take 3 hours for a meal if you would like.

Hey, who's that random guy smiling at you in that one photo? Did you flash your engagement ring at him? He looks like he's feeling pretty confident for the pick-up, now that you're taking his photo!

ha ha.

Hey are the different colors on the buildings representing different suites?? THat one building would have mighty small suites if that were the case.

The random guy smiling is Thomas. I met him on our 5 hour wait between flights. We took a cab into the centre of town and lounged at one of the outdoor restaurant cafes. he was fun. He liked the waitress and I kept telling him to tell her in Polish that he just met me and I was meeting my husband (easier than explaining the fiance thing). He got her email in the end and will be emailing her. He was a fun Canadian/Polish guy to hang out with for the afternoon.

Yes, each building is painted a different colour. Things are a lot smaller here in Europe than back home. What is considered spacious here is considered small back home.

I love the colours of the buildings. It reminds me of a much older version of Rainbow Row, which is in Charleston, South Carolina. (By the way, I'm Laura's friend...I found you by way of her!)
