Warsaw-Last Stop

We head back to Canada Saturday October 16. Early call, flight leaves at 6:00AM.


It has been slower this week, since Monday but not without some happenings. Back to the very beginning. We arrived here in Warsaw Friday September 17. Now after 4 weeks it it is time for reflection. If asked I would guess Walter would say he is very satisfied with his trip. he came to Poland with a short wish list, we completed all of that and he was able to add experiences that were a real bonus.


Monday October 11 visit with Szef of Veteran Affairs, Jan Josef Kasprzyk.

Meet for lunch with Marta Radziach, of TVP Poland who is a rezytor, journalist. In 2019, for the 75th Anniversary of the Battle of Monte Cassino, she filmed a very nice program about the veterans of Monte Cassino, it included Walter and interviews were held in Warsaw with more filming done on Monte Cassino.

A nice meeting we catch up and yes tell our covid stories!

Up early and we head over to Damian Center for a pre-flight test. Covid that is. To see if we can fly.

Walter said I thought it was a test that took 2 hours. Good, it was less than 30 seconds!


In the afternoon we head over to Marysia and family in Ursus for a farewell dinner. It was a very nice time and Walter said how nice time spent was and we felt close to family! Not to forget a mountain of pierogi to go with Rosol, sausage and bigos! Nice to see our family again to spend quality time and to say goodbye till next time!
