Description
Super short day. Some wide and bumpy unpaved roads lacing small ponds and then I arrived at a beautiful farmhouse and orchard about 7km from Auschwitz II. It is claimed that the farmhouse provided assistance to escapees from Auschwitz but I can’t find any way to confirm. However, it is extremely peaceful and is a nice place to catch up on email and reading in the garden.
