We missed Asia…
In 2019, shortly before the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic, we returned from Cambodia, which will remain in our hearts and minds forever.
Staying and working in Kampot was the culmination of our ten-year trips to Asia, several times a year.
The pandemic knocked us out of the rhythm of trips to Thailand, Burma (Myanma), Cambodia, Malaysia and Singapore and left us with typical "destinations": Tunisia, Greece, Italy and Cyprus and ... the Polish Baltic coast!
It's time to go back to Asia.
The choice fell on Sri Lanka, which could be treated as a gateway to India, which may have to wait a little longer for us.
PLL LOT turned out to be a financially advantageous choice to fly to Colombo, with the inconvenience of connecting to Warsaw.
December '23 surprised everyone with early winter, which caused traffic disruptions, mainly at the Polish State Railways.
How to get to Warsaw without risking missing the Qatar flight to Doha and on to Colombo?
Following the weather forecast can be deceptive, because it is not known what may hinder the PKP express service on the Szczecin - Warsaw route.
An alternative is driving a car, but highways do not encourage usto risk driving on ice and the additional costs of "toll gates" and long-term parking at Okęcie.
There is a decision: we will take the early train, hoping that a possible delay will allow us to catch the flight at 4:00 p.m. anyway.
04:30 we boarded Express IC, hoping that neither snow on the tracks nor frost on the traction would disturb the speeding train.
We're leaving for now. Slowly, but we're moving...
