The Temporary Mieszkanie



In two more days we move to our "permanent" furnished apartment. For the last week we've been in a mieszkani; somewhat of an apartment, somewhat hotel (maid service three times a week.)

Here's a picture of the bed in our our temporary apartment. Who made this bed?
a. David
b. An alien
c. Lisa
d. Maid service


If you guessed d, you're right! What you may not notice is that the decorative pillows on top of the pillows that we sleep on are zipper-side out. Maybe it's been a while since I've shopped at Bed, Bath and Beyond and this is just an example of "beyond" my fashion sense!


Yesterday we visited the Uprising Museum. We gained a greater appreciation of the determination of the Varsovians to persist throughout World War II. We learned of many organized efforts to regain their freedom; first as a Union of Armed Struggle, then the Home Army which operated an underground press as well as planned military retaliation against the Nazis. It was a very moving and memorable museum experience. (Only 5 Zoltys - less than 3 dollars)
