Cavalry
I didn't want to end the celebration of Joan's birthday so I took her this morning to the rynek for breakfast of scrambled eggs, cucumbers, tomatoes, bread and cafe latte. As usual on the weekend, the military likes to parade through the rynek with members of the old cavalry to give tourist an experience of how they looked. Of course, this is the modern version, not the version of the Hussaria, the most famous of the Polish cavalaries.
With all the activities this week we did not go food shopping until today when we were completely out of food. Joan mad the list for the next six days, we went to Carrefour and spent 130 zl. Every day this last week has seemed like Sunday to us.
A reader, Anna, told me of another, private botanical garden, 30 km east of Pozna艅 that would be worth visiting but when I contacted them they said they do not have time for individuals, only for groups of 25 or more so I guess it will not be possible. It is called Elzbietowka, near the town of Brzezno.
Nie chcia艂em, aby zako艅czy膰 obchody Joan urodziny wi臋c wzi膮艂em j膮 dzi艣 rano na Rynku na 艣niadanie jajecznica, og贸rki, pomidory, chleb i cafe latte. Jak zwykle w weekend, wojsko lubi parada przez Rynek z cz艂onkami starej Kalwarii da膰 aan turystycznego do艣wiadczenia, jak wygl膮da艂y. Oczywi艣cie, jest to nowoczesna wersja, a nie wersja Hussaria, najbardziej znany z polskich kalwarii.
Z wszystkich dzia艂a艅 w tym tygodniu nie byli艣my zakupy 偶ywno艣ci a偶 do dzisiaj, kiedy byli艣my ca艂kowicie z jedzeniem. Joan mad lista dla nast臋pnych sze艣ciu dni, poszli艣my do Carrefour i sp臋dzi艂 130 z艂. Ka偶dego dnia ten ostatni tydzie艅 wydawa艂o si臋 niedzieli do nas.
Czytelnik, Anna, powiedzia艂 mi innego, prywatny ogr贸d botaniczny, 30 km na wsch贸d od Poznania, co by艂oby warte odwiedzenia, ale kiedy skontaktowa艂 si臋 z nimi oni powiedzieli, 偶e nie maj膮 czasu dla os贸b, tylko dla grup 25 lub wi臋cej wi臋c my艣l臋, 偶e nie b臋dzie mo偶liwe. Nazywa Elzbietowka, w pobli偶u miasta Brze藕nie.
