On 29th June a group of 11 Catenians and wives
left Liverpool Airport for a 4-night break in the beautiful Polish city of
Krakow. The trip was organised and led by Brother Nick Hanley of Chorley
Circle and his wife Kate. The group included Brother Robert Thompson,
President of Province 10, of Lytham Circle and other members of the group
represented Burnley, Longridge, and Garstang Circles.
Visits to Auschwitz and the Salt Mines were organised and
there was plenty of free time for shopping or simply to relax and see the city
sights including a visit to the Jewish Quarter, a sail on the River Vistula or just a stroll through the parks. The restaurants of Krakow are to be
recommended for the quality of the food and wine and their very reasonable
prices. The group took full advantage of their fare. Except for the final
day, when it poured with rain, sunshine prevailed and the daytime temperature
hovered around 31 degrees.
The trip was completed by a dim sum lunch at the Tai Pan
Chinese Restaurant on the return from Liverpool Airport.
To sum it up – a good
time was had by all.

St. Mary’s basilica after attending Holy Mass; Nick and Kate (in the ‘shades’)
