Gen dobry!

Hello!

So Poland is nice. A little depressing at times, but nice.

Well, yesterday and today we went to class at eFKa, which is a Women's foundation. We've had lecutres by several different people who work there. eFKa sounds like a really good oranization for helping women, one of the only in Krakow. It's a long walk to it, though! Right before I got to class, I bought a little donut shape bread thing on the street and ate some and feed the rest to the pigeons. They were swarming me! :)

Today, I walked down to a vegeterian restaraunt with a few people. It was incredibly good! Then, while I was walking back, I saw this polish band dressed up in old costumes. I sat down to listen, and a cute little old man next to me was feeding pigeons and sparrows. I watched him for a while, and he was so sweet, laughing at the birds. He made my day.

I love all the little stands and shops in Poland. There is a little fruit stand on the way to eFKa, at which I get fabulous peaches. :) There are also pirogue and coffee shops and all kinds of other stuff everywhere.

Tomorrow, I will have to start doing interviews. EEK! I'm afraid that most religious people won't want to talk to a young, female, American researcher. We'll see, though.

Anyway, must go!

Jennifer

    Wow ... sounds like you are blending in with the Polish environment. Better watch that ... but then again you are a little young to be aware of Polish Jokes (sort of the precursor to Aggie Jokes). Glad you are liking all that. I know it is cooler than the 102F expected here today. But never fear, we have Katrina's younger sister bearing down on the Texas coast .. just heard it is a Catagory 5 already. About 1 million people have been or are being evacuated. I think nature has decided it wants to move the Gulf of Mexico a little north. Hope not. Glad you are well and keeping the pidgeons fed !! Jon is doing better.

    Love Dad
