Poland-Our Future

We left for the airport on thursday at 5:30PM only to find out that our flight was delayed for 2 1/2 hours and wouldn't leave until 11:30PM. Our friend dKrystyna was waiting for us and she stayed with us for about two hours. We waited after she left and departed Chicago at 11:30. The plane was full capacity and across the aisle was a lady with two young children. They were small enough that one of them slept on the floor under the seats in a sleeping bag she had brought. I wish it had been me since Joan and I only slept about two hours in the last 48.

In Poznan we were greeted by cousin Luka, her husband Marek and daughter Rozia, her brother Krzysztof and her mother and father. It was great to see them again after 3 years and we loaded our bags and went to her house where we will stay until we find a place to live. It was gray and cool in Poznan, a nice contrast from the hot days in Chicago. She made a cake for us and we had dinner following the cake.

So now here we are and the adventure really begins with searching for an apartment.
