Another city, another Indian restaurant. This is the self-imposed travel etiquette strictly adhered to by himself while we are traveling. On a recent trip to Krakow I couldn't really stand in the way of convention since on a previous visit in 2003, we skipped the Indian restaurant we had spotted and waited until Katowice for the curry fix instead.
He made the usual noises the whole of Saturday, "We don't HAVE to go to an Indian restaurant, we SHOULD eat traditional Polish, we COULD try one of the Jewish restaurants in Kazimierz." Even when he spotted an Indian restaurant in Kazimierz he feigned disinterest when all the time I knew he was dying to see the interior, test the bhajis and sample the pickle tray.

We stayed in two different places whilst in Krakow. We stayed in the Rainbow Apartments for the first three nights.

Another good thing about the Rainbow Apartments is that ...

translates as "The New Steel Mill".
Of course, Nowa Huta was in reality a mammoth work of propaganda; look how happy these Polish people are living in their new apartments around tree-filled courtyards, look at the men climb on board the trams on their way to work in the steel factory, how wonderful life is under Communism!
Work started in 1949; in 1952 Nowa Huta was joined by tramline with Krakow. The "Lenin Steelworks" opened in 1954. In spite of the fact that the scheme was uneconomic and really only to make a propaganda statement, steel production in Nowa Huta reached an annual 7 million tonnes by the 1970s. However, by the 1980s the growing pressures on the economy were causing production at Nowa Huta to slow dramatically. The steelworks had no easy to access to either coal, brought in from the Silesia area, nor iron ore, which was ...
