It's been a wonderful time, touching base with various church leaders and their wives from all over the place.
Krakow itself is an interesting place, there's a very cool castle-plus-cathedral up on a hill that Stephi and I visited called uh..."Wawel" - John Paul II. actually served there as a priest for a long time.
Other than that: There was some major planning time for the upcoming GCE (Great Commission Europe - gotta love them abb.). Also, some awesome prayer times for the various countries in Europe - each of the different countries represented shared on what's going on, and then we'd pray for that country and its neighbouring countries (including mini mini countries like Andorra or San Marino, or the Holy See).
The food was just great, we had some good Texas Hold'em poker-playing with my Dad, my brother Timothy and his wife.
Oh, and, gotta share this with you, it was in our free Krakow travel guide - it seems the author has quite the experience:
Drunk Tank
Be warned: Polish beer and vodka are rocket fuel. If you’re determined to make a prat of yourself then make sure it’s not in front of the law. A trip to Krakow’s premier drunk tank (ul Rozrywkowa 1 – which literally translates as Entertainment Street) will set you back 250 zl [equivalent to about $85] for a 15 hour stay. In return for your cash expect a strip search, a set of blue pajamas and the company of a dozen mumbling vagrants. Those resisting arrest will find themselves strapped down to a bed, One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest-style. Refreshment comes in the form of limitless coffee, though the mug it comes in will smell of urine for a reason. Credit cards not accepted.
