Travel Review: Luxury Poland, Czech Republic, & Austria Tour, Krakow, Prague, Vienna, POLIN Museum, Auschwitz Visit, River Cruise

Ah ... so hard to single out.  It was all wonderful.  The Polin Museum in Warsaw.  The contrast of our two dinners in Krakow: the touristy but excellent underground, candlelit dinner in old town compared with the vegetarian fare, a place more for locals outside the city gate.  The contrast of the spectacle Auschwitz has become compared with quiet ruins of Birkenau.  The river cruise in Prague, a quiet, romantic respite in a very high energy city.  The Hotel in Vienna, the new standard by which all our future hotels will be measured.  When the breakfast buffet includes a world-famous chocolate torte (which those unlucky enough to be staying elsewhere line up outside the hotel cafe to sample) and the breakfast host rushes to our table to inform my husband that the New York Times has just arrived and asks if he can bring him a copy, well, you have two very, VERY happy travelers.
