Poland for the weekend

Saturday, November 17, 2012


 On the November 1st long weekend I flew to Poland to spend some time with my family in Wrocław and Swidnica...


Was wandering around the centre of Wrocław and could only find foreign-themed cafés so I chose this cute French-style place for a coffee and croissant (served hot with honey drizzled over top!)

View from Café Monsieur

"Painters Street" in Wrocław


We visited the cemetery to mark All Saint's Day by lighting candles and laying flowers. It's a big deal in Poland to keep family graves looking well-visited.

"Modern" - it probably was in 1970!

My cousin's rabbit Psota in a trance. (Did you know rabbits trance when you put them on their back?  This was the first I heard of it!)
Was happy to stumble upon a flea market taking over the centre of Swidnica on Sunday afternoon!


It's still very easy to find scenes straight from the past in Poland
