Almost ready!

Upper Peninsula of Michigan-our past life.
 
Tomorrow is the big day. I went for the haircut earlier and stopped to buy rogala but they were already sold out. The lady said they would have more in the morning when they open at 9:00 so I will be there at that time. I could go to Kandulski's today to buy them but Elite's are better.  They are moister and have more white poppy-seed in them so we like them better. Now I have to polish my shoes, select the clothes to wear for tomorrow and then I'll be ready  It's been too long since we visited cousin Kazia and her family so I'm looking forward to this little trip. It doesn't look like the weather will be too great tomorrow, mostly cloudy, which usually turns out to be gray skies all day. We will leave at 10:00 in the morning and get to Kazia's by noon after a stop at the cemetery to put down candles and flowers on the graves.

I have, finally, a good person to practice my Spanish with on Skype and I look forward to our meetings. Her level of English is above my Spanish and so it's usually easy for me to understand her explanations.

Jutro jest wielki dzie艅. Poszed艂em na strzy偶enie wcze艣niej i zatrzyma艂 si臋 kupi膰 Rogala ale by艂y ju偶 wyprzedane.Pani powiedzia艂a, 偶e maj膮 wi臋cej rano, kiedy otwieraj膮 si臋 o 9:00, wi臋c b臋d臋 tam w tym czasie. Mog艂em i艣膰 do dzi艣 Kandulski, aby je kupi膰, ale elity s膮 lepsze. S膮 wilgotnych i maj膮 wi臋cej bia艂ego maku w je tak lubimy je lepiej. Teraz musz臋 polerowa膰 buty, wybra膰 si臋 ubra膰 na jutro i b臋d臋 gotowy To by艂o zbyt dawno odwiedzili艣my kuzyna Kazia i jej rodzina, wi臋c nie mog臋 si臋 doczeka膰 do tego ma艂膮 wycieczk臋. To nie wygl膮da jak pogoda b臋dzie zbyt wielka jutro, najbardziej pochmurny, co zwykle okazuje si臋 by膰 szare niebo przez ca艂y dzie艅. Opuszczamy o 10:00 rano i dosta膰 si臋 do po艂udnia Kazi po zatrzymaniu na cmentarzu od艂o偶y膰 艣wiece i kwiaty na grobach.

Mam, w ko艅cu, dobra osoba 膰wiczy膰 m贸j hiszpa艅ski z Skype i czekam na nasze spotkania. Jej poziom angielskiego jest nad moim hiszpa艅skim i tak to zwykle mi 艂atwo zrozumie膰 jej wyja艣nie艅.
