And so another one ends! Left Gdansk just before 10 am on Saturday morning and didn't stop, apart from taking the Calais to Dover ferry, until I reached West Yorkshire just on 10 am on Sunday. Somewhere between 1200 and 1300 miles I would think!! Till the next time!!

The sole purpose of travelling up to Gdansk was to see the place where the fall of communism in Eastern Europe started. Where the first domino was tipped!! And I'm pleased to say I've seen the shipyard/s, and I've walked across the very same bridge that the leaders of the shipyard workers crossed, to sit down in what to all intents and purposes is a very architecturally insignificant building, to negotiate with government officials for the right to form self governing independent trade unions. And the rest is history!! You may have noticed that I've also been collecting 'old towns' on my way round and I have to say Gdansk's was well worth the visit!! Some pictures of those shipyards to start with!!

Couple of the outside of the Warsaw Uprising Museum and one of the Palace of Culture and Science to finish.
