A Visit to Poland

This past weekend 5 ladies from BFA and myself went to Poland! It took us 11 hours to get there, but it was well worth it! We had a wonderful "retreat" together! I had never visited Poland before and it was amazing to think that this was the country my Grandpa had lived in before he immigrated to Canada in 1911.

A taste of Polish food - Gulash soup served in bread bowls! And of course the pickles!

We arrived in Poland on All Saints Day. We were in a very Catholic region and couldn't help but notice the tombstones in the graveyards covered with flowers and candles.

A Polish farm that we passed....
