Tyniecki klasztor zza Wisły

Benedictine Abbey in Tyniec across the Vistula River

I rented a bike and rode almost 20 miles on Thursday. The ride was good except for the heat. My weather app said something like 88°, feels like 96°. With the humidity and bright sun, it felt more like 100° to me.

Anyway, my halfway point was here. After visiting the abbey, instead of taking the same route home, I hired a guy with a boat to take me and my bike across the river for this view before heading back to Krakow Old Town on the northern side of the river.

Not many tourists in Krakow at the moment thanks to Covid-19. The good news is you can take photos like this one without loads of people getting in the way. The bad news is some places are closed, and getting a tour can be difficult.
