We planned for 5 weeks with daytime highs in the mid-70’s and lows in the mid-60’s. The first leg, 10 nights in Krakow, we were fine. Near record highs in the 80’s and mid-70’s in the evening. I was not as happy with my choices for Wroclaw, Bydgoszcz and part of our time in Gdansk, as temperatures were sometimes as low as 60 - 65 and often wet. Layers, layers, layers were the only solution. I brought the camisole primarily for the salt mine as I am always cold and ended up wearing it for half the trip. Everything below is Land’s End unless otherwise noted. It all fit into one packing cube, shoes packed separately. I left our travel umbrellas at home, so now we have 2 more. I was happy to have the jeans - they got a lot of wear and were washed in our apartment. They dried within 24-36 hours. Everything else dried within hours. I wore everything repeatedly. Looking back, I would have added an extra cardigan. I didn’t expect to be wearing the same one daily for almost 4 weeks. This time, I omitted jewelry (except for 2 sets of stud earrings), accessory scarf, make-up and facial wash and serums. I’m much more wrinkled now. Oh well.
