Into Poland - Zamosc

The international bus from Lviv, Ukraine to Zamosc, Poland was painless although the border crossing was very slow ie 3 hrs, although we gained an hour with the timezone change, and the bus lane appeared to moving a lot faster than the car lane. Plus we had time to make friends with a few of our companions. After crossing the border it's only another 90 minutes to Zamosc.

Zamosc is picture perfect town in southeastern Poland with colorful Renaissance buildings lining the main square, and in fact the entire Old Town has barely a blemish with nary an out-of-place stone on the sidewalks and streets.
