Joan and I had to go to the main Citihandlowy bank today to withdraw the euros necessary for our upcoming trip. It was very easy to do. They also told me I could do it in the ATM on the main floor.
Tomorrow is packing day. I have a long list of what to pack and have to keep the bag at no more than 20 kg. We also can take a 10 kg bag with 2 bags that fit under the seat.
Radek was here and told me this interesting story that happened last month...
Poland’s interior ministry said that Jaros艂aw Szymczyk, the police commander in chief, was injured and taken to hospital when a present he received during a visit to Ukraine exploded at police headquarters in Warsaw.
Polish media reported that the present was a grenade launcher and that Szymczyk himself had accidentally fired it in his office, in what would be a serious breach of safety regulations.
In a statement, a spokesperson for the prosecutor’s office said it was investigating “an act consisting of unintentionally causing a violent release of energy that threatened the life or health of many people or property”.
The statement said three people, including Szymczyk, were considered victims, without giving details of possible injuries.
Polish media reported that the blast had damaged a ceiling in the building.
A police spokesperson and a spokesperson for the prosecutor’s office both declined to comment further on the issue. Source-The Guardian

Jutro jest dzie艅 na pakowanie baga偶u. Mam d艂ug膮 list臋 tego, co nale偶y spakowa膰 i musz臋 utrzyma膰 torb臋 na poziomie nie wi臋kszym ni偶 20 kg. Mo偶emy te偶 wzi膮膰 2 torby po 10 kg, kt贸re mieszcz膮 si臋 pod siedzeniem.
Radek by艂 u nasi opowiedzia艂 mi ciekaw膮 histori臋, kt贸ra wydarzy艂a si臋 w zesz艂ym miesi膮cu...
Polskie ministerstwo spraw wewn臋trznych oznajmi艂o, 偶e Jaros艂aw Szymczyk, komendant g艂贸wny policji, zosta艂 ranny i zabrany do szpitala, gdy prezent, kt贸ry otrzyma艂 podczas wizyty w Ukrainie, eksplodowa艂 w siedzibie policji w Warszawie.
Polskie media poda艂y, 偶e prezentem by艂 granatnik i 偶e Szymczyk sam przypadkowo odpali艂 go w swoim biurze, co by艂oby powa偶nym naruszeniem przepis贸w bezpiecze艅stwa.
W o艣wiadczeniu rzecznik prokuratury powiedzia艂, 偶e prowadzi ona 艣ledztwo w sprawie "czynu polegaj膮cego na nieumy艣lnym spowodowaniu gwa艂townego wyzwolenia energii, kt贸re zagra偶a艂o 偶yciu lub zdrowiu wielu os贸b lub mieniu".
W o艣wiadczeniu podano, 偶e trzy osoby, w tym Szymczyk, zosta艂y uznane za ofiary, nie podaj膮c szczeg贸艂贸w dotycz膮cych ewentualnych obra偶e艅.
Polskie media poda艂y, 偶e wybuch uszkodzi艂 sufit w budynku.
Zar贸wno rzecznik policji, jak i rzecznik prokuratury odm贸wili dalszego komentarza w tej sprawie. 殴r贸d艂o - The Guardian
