Road Trip!!
Our meeting with Z today in Kandulski's was spent planning our trip to England. We'll leave on a Saturday morning at 6AM, drive through Germany and then France to Calais. We'll spend the night there and in the morning take the ferry to Dover, then drive two hours to RedHill where we will be staying with friends. We have plans for one day in Northleace, one day in Luton and the rest of the time in London and surrounding areas. It should be an interesting trip. It's the first time for me but Joan has been there before, earlier in her life.
I bought a Sony digital recorder and plan on using it in my genealogy research. My hope is to record the remembrances of older cousins, their stories of life in Poland and what they remember about our ancestors, parents and grandparents. I've heard some of the stories but want to have it on recording also for future generations to hear if they would be interested. I think it's a good idea. With a USB cable and the accompanying software I can download them to the computer, turn them into MP3 files and save them.
Nasze spotkanie z Z dzisiaj w Kandulski by艂 czas sp臋dzony planowania naszej podr贸偶y do Anglii. Zostawimy w sobot臋 rano o 6 rano, przejazd przez Niemcy i Francj臋 do Calais. B臋dziemy sp臋dzi膰 tam noc, a rano promem do Dover, a nast臋pnie jecha膰 dwie godziny Redhill, gdzie b臋dziemy przebywa膰 z przyjaci贸艂mi. Mamy plany na jeden dzie艅 w Northleace, jeden dzie艅 w Luton, a reszta czasu w Londynie i okolicach. Nale偶y ciekaw膮 wycieczk臋. Jest to dla mnie pierwszy raz, ale Joan by艂 tam wcze艣niej, wcze艣niej w swoim 偶yciu.
Kupi艂em Sony dyktafon cyfrowy i planujesz u偶ywa膰 go w moim bada艅 genealogicznych. Mam nadziej臋, zapis wspomnie艅 starszych kuzyn贸w, ich historie 偶ycia Polska i co pami臋taj膮 o naszych przodkach, rodzic贸w i dziadk贸w. S艂ysza艂em opowie艣ci, ale chcesz mie膰 to na nagrywanie r贸wnie偶 dla przysz艂ych pokole艅, by us艂ysze膰, czy byliby zainteresowani. My艣l臋, 偶e to dobry pomys艂. Za pomoc膮 kabla USB oraz oprogramowania towarzysz膮cego mog臋 pobra膰 je do komputera, wy艂膮cz je do plik贸w MP3 i zapisywa膰 je.
