Mr. Gamble
We arrived at the restaurant at 6:30PM. Mr. Gamble, the host of the evening, was sitting at a table with two ladies. They had just arrived in Pozna艅 for the Climate conference and rented a house nearby. They didn't know anything about the dinner but were out walking looking for a restaurant to eat dinner. They saw the sign that said "Happy Thanksgiving" on the door and came in. They were very surprised to find out the restaurant was rented out for this night to host a Thanksgiving dinner for all Americans in Pozna艅.We introduced ourselves and exchanged stories about who we were and why we were in Pozna艅. People kept arriving until there were about 40 people in all. At Mr. Gable's urging we all took turns standing up and telling who we were and why we were in Pozna艅. Some were missionaires, some were workers in foreign firms, one was an F-16 test pilot and two came to Poland because of family, Joan and I. Most of the people have been in Pozna艅 for some years, 3, 6, 9, and 16.
The dinner was mostly Amercian cuisine except for the barscz served before dinner. There was turkey, mashed potatoes, peas, salad and bread. Desert was to be pumpkin pie but Joan and I had to leave before it was served.
I had to go to Zbyszeks to meet with his son, Radek. I am still having some problem with pain in my back since the cold and Radek, a doctor, agreed to take a look to find the problem. He examined me and gave me a prescription for anti-inflamation drugs. It was 9:30 and the only close Apteka that was open all night was in a location I was not familiar with so Zbyszek went with us to get the prescription filled. We took him back home and then drove home.
Tomorrow at 9:30AM I go to have our snow tires put on the car.
