14.08.2004 Budapest (HUNGARY)

At the station of the Hungarian capital we meet two clumsy but likeable lads from Palermo, full of enthusiasm. We immediately nicknamed them: Tom & Jerry, remembering that last year on this train we met the legendary "Grattachecca e Fighetto"! Then there's a school group of twenty Polish boys and girls! I chatted a lot, in particular with one of them: Magda. Main characteristic: she adores serial killers! Watch out!

[Magda Bator from Tarnow - Poland]: "Nie ma szczescia bez lez i zycia bez smerci" Lucjan Staniak. "There is no happiness without tears and no life without death".

One thing that has always fascinated me about interrails is, a bit like the film "Sliding Doors", the fact that you never know who you might have met if you'd taken one train or another... To this and many other questions we will never be able to give you an answer... as someone would say!

15.08.2004 Krakow (POLAND)

Sky Hostel again! The legendary Wictor welcomes us! The atmosphere is the same as always! But the Roscio and I, tired and frozen to death, soon shut ourselves in our sleeping bags, surprising even Wictor himself... but it's only the first evening!

16.08.2004 Tarnow (POLAND)

Tarnow is a Polish town.. but truly Polish, without tourists, without Italians, without the English language...

17.08.2004 Krakow (POLAND)

I note with regret that here it's no longer like last year... Takx is right when he says that beautiful things shouldn't be repeated, and Paganini was right never to grant an encore!

18.08.2004 Krakow (POLAND)

[Marco di Stefano from Palermo]: Your teachings will not be underestimated. We will conquer Jelenia Gora and then, from there, every town that comes our way!

[Giovanni Romano from Palermo]: In the end the call of the train prevailed and here we are travelling again. This is the spirit of the interrail, right?

Tomorrow we'll go and visit our dear friends Iwona and Kasia, whom we met last year!
