Gdansk, Poland

My third trip to Poland - this time to the north on the Baltic coast.

A beautiful city, very easily walkable. In April the weather was changeable, on a 4-day trip 2 days were 17C and two days were -8C with windchill - the weather forecast was accurate so taking the right clothes was easy.
