Hello from Warsaw, Poland
Friday, May 13th, 2005
I am currently in Warsaw, Poland sitting in an internet cafe a mile or so from our hotel. We arrived yesterday 5/12/05 at around 3pm local time. (or 6am pacific time) The plane ride from LAX to Charles de Gaulle airport in France was about 11 hours. The subsequent flight from there to Warsaw, Poland was about 2 hours. When we arrived at our hotel, which I must say is fantastic, we could either sit around until dinner, or go look around the old town with our guide Iain. (He’s Scottish) So a few of us went with him. Here are a couple shots of what we saw.
After our initial excursion, we came back to the hotel for dinner. It consisted of a salad with strawberry vinaigrette (sp?), pea soup, and some chicken in a mushroom sauce. I enjoyed it, although the dressing was a little different.
Luckily, I didn’t get any(enough) sleep on the flight over so I was extremely tired and ready for bed when it was locally time to do so. When we left Los Angeles it was 3:30 pm and we arrived that same time the next day. This is of course because of the 9 hour difference and travel time. Anyways, I went to sleep around 9:30pm.
