Warsaw
In Warsaw we stayed with the deacon of the church whose camp we were helping with. He lived in a lovely house on the outskirts near Willa Now (Villa Nov). It was a beautiful summer/ vacation castle that had just been restored - there were lovely parks and walk ways and even WiFi
The next day we explored the center. Sleepy, quiet, lovely, but expensive. Not only has the dollar declined in value - but the zloty has strengthened . . . a lot One dollar gets you 2 zloty - but it will cost you six zloty if you want an ice cream and 10 if you want coffee. Craziness.
Despite being a capital city - Warsaw apparently doesn't have too much going on. Alister Says that it and Brussels are reputed to be the most boring cities in Europe. Later when we saw Krakow - a club or concert on every corner - we understood how Warsaw could be so easily outshone.
