poland... more than i expected.

first of all, i didn't expect to be here for two whole weeks. infact, had i not been wanting to come visit my friend joanna, i would not have come here at all. at least not on this trip. but in the time i have been here i have eaten tons of great food (really, maybe actual tons) and learned way more about history than i did in high school social studies. but lets talk about food and other random things, the pictures are sillier. and one day i'll get to the other stuff like the architechture, communism, and concentration camps.



first authentic polish meal & first halloween in poland




joanna made these from scratch -- they're polish crossiants made to celebrate polish independance day... she filled 'em with plum jelly (i think?.... it's polish, who knows), chocolate, or apples... didn't last long, as you can see.



and i present to you the ZAPIKANKA!! the best late night concession i have encountered in all my 28 years of late night eating. note, those are two seperate zapikankas on consecutive nights. mmmmmmm yum!


i didn't eat anything in there... but tee hee!



polish staples, beer and vodka, ouch ... and that's a fridge


big ass american car... look at that thing!! the front in the size of the little european (normal for europe) one behind it!!


ha!


a tad far from home.... but that ain't nothin yet
