My Second Visit to Poland – Forefathers Traces Tour with James. The Last Days. Part 2.

This time this is James’ post sent by e-mail to Zenon and posted here today.

Day 8. Back in Warsaw for my last day in Poland.   I fly home tomorrow,  7:45 am.  Thunder and rain until about 10:30 am,  then it let up, and I headed to the Old Town Square, to try and finish shopping for some gifts.

I enjoyed a ( Polish donut ? )  for lunch,  and listened to live music and dancing near the square,  before going back to the hostel.

Almost out of money, so I figured I’ d have,  my last meal at Mc Donalds,  get myself ready for the States.  I couldn’t believe how crowed it was.  There are two floors for the patrons, and I had trouble finding a seat.   Oh,  where are Magda and Sylwia ,  when I need a real  home cooked Polish dinner ??

Took a nap after dinner, and then stayed up most of the night ,  so as to be sure I’d be awake and ready for Zenon, who was going to pick me up at 5:30 am,  and drive me to the airport .

Day 9. My last wake-up in Poland.  Meet Zenon and we drove to the airport.  It was a short, sad good-bye,  to a wonderful friend, and country.  I don’t know if or when , I’ll ever be back, ( Zenon says I’ll be back in 5 years !? ) but the memories will satisfy me for quite a while.
