Wroclaw 2006 - "It Could Have Been Worse"
The Best Things About Poland
1. Spending time with Agnieszka. I kind of wish I'd brought her back with me!
2. Eating Polish food. My personal faves were Zurek (a type of soup with potato, meat, and egg sometimes served in a bread bowl - much better than the stuff at Tim Horton's!) and this thing with vegetables in cum sauce inside a pita. (I can't remember the name of it offhand, but it's a lot tastier than it sounds!)
3. Meeting so many new people, most of whom weren't actually Polish, but were still extremely cool.
4. Learning a few new Polish words. (I can now say yes, no, thank you, vodka with orange juice, and pussy.)
5. Finding out that there's just as much drama in Poland as in Canada.
6. Polish rap. ("Check out that hottie, she took all my zloty!")

I’m imagining the words you learned went something like this. You going to a bar , table for two “yes”, smoking “no”, here’s your table “thank you”, what are you drinking “vodka with orange juice”, at this point I’m not sure what happens. Maybe the waiter says something in Polish but it sounds very much like a highly offensive English phrase That’s when you yell the expletive, in actuality he was just asking if you wanted ice in your drink.
Or maybe not:)
Glad you had a nice trip.
too bad you couldn't bring agnes back, kidnapping not an option?
glad to hear you had a good time!
Happy New Year
