Further along a group of teenagers were playing out some melodrama. I didn't know what it was, until one of them staggered a few meters away from his friends, and had a wee off the bank - without breaking conversation. A 2L juice carton on the ground was another give away. It's 1pm on Monday. But I guess teenagers take a creative approach to school attendance everywhere.
Public drunkeness is going to get dangerous soon; last year it was absurdly cold, -20 during the day in Krakow, and apparently it got to -15 in Wroclaw.
But I'm secretly looking forward to it. It's going to be my first full European winter. Lots of skiing and hot spiced wine, and just sitting around and being warm, which suddenly becomes an activity when it's so cold.
The park near our place. Soon it'll be back in monochrome, and the cycle will be complete. It's already quite brisk, despite the sunlight. Już nie długo do zimy.
