Post from POLAND
Hi all -
Well as you can see. I am posting from Poland. And now that I have finallly gotten in - everyone wants to leave this bar/restaurant/internet place. We are in the country - it is very rural, pastoral, quaint, etc, etc, etc. Yesterday we saw a man in his field with a sickle. I felt like I was in a Thomas Hardy novel - It was a dream come true for me.
Today we went to Hitler's bunker - in a place named "Wolf's Lair" Hitler had it built towards the end of the war and stayed there for a short time. Afterwhich he returned to Berlin - married his mistress and committed suicide. It was very interesting. And not to far - 19 kilometers from where my mother lived. She was living there when he was at this place. Today we saw where my grandfather and grandmother grew up - we have seen the first LDS church built in Poland / Europe ( it was in my mother's town) Zelwagi - or Selbongen the second name is in German the first in Polish. I wish I had time to attach some pictures - I think I have taken at least 700 - and I have about 500 more to go. Are you all excited for the slide show - ha ha
To all my family and friends I miss you and I have LOTS of stories to tell.
See you all later
