Day 6: Goodbye Warsaw, Hello Łódź

Today is our last day in Warsaw.  We took a quick drive through another part of Warsaw that we haven't yet seen and stopped by my cousin's apartment.  Now we're starting to pack our things up to board an afternoon train to Łódź; my birthplace.  We've had a great time siteseeing and spending time with family so far, and are looking forward to doing the same in the 2nd portion of our time in Poland.

We're not really sure how much Internet access we'll have for the next 2-3 days, but we'll certainly make notes as we go along to post future updates as we can.

Fruit at the local market.  Poland has always had great quality berries:

Blast from the past:

View from my cousin Kuba's apartment.  Most apartments (even new ones) are low rise.  His apartment on the 7th floor is considered to be quite high up:

We travelled by train from Warsaw to Łódź. The journey took about 90 minutes. Ewa and Piotr were pleasantly surprised when the train arrived at the platform in Warsaw and recognized that it was a modern, air-conditioned one. We would travel in comfort! We were met in Lodz by Ania and Gregorz. They will be our tourguides while we are in Lodz.
