Less Than Five Days!

In less than five days, I will be back in Poland again. I am so excited. Tonight I really began to pack things up. It’s hard to know how to pack for 3 weeks–21 days–in only one suitcase of under 50 pounds and a 13 pound carry-on. And to leave room for souvenirs and stuff to bring back, too. Though I imagine I could/would ship stuff back if needed too. Not sure what I’ll find but maybe a few things I’d like to find:

  • Wycinanki. I found some great Wycinanki (paper cuttings) in Krakow last year and they now are framed and adorn my living room wall. I’d like to find more.
  • Szopka. I found a nice but small one last year. I’d like a bigger one but would want to ship that, they are pretty fragile
  • T-Shirts. Hey, it’s the “normal” souvenir, I’d have to get a few, and from Ukraine, too.
  • Books and maps. Well, it all depends on what I find. Maybe some tour guides from some of the places we visit? Who knows what I’ll find.

But most of all will be the memories I take back with me, and the many, many photos I take. I sure hope they don’t mind my taking photos of everything, including food, meals, places we’ll visit, etc. A picture is worth a thousand words, for sure!

    Your Wycinanki are beautiful. I’d definitely try to get more. Shipping them along with the Szopka might be the way to go. I saw a guy a couple weeks ago wearing a Zwiecek (sp) t-shirt and asked where he got it. His reply?….Poland!!!
