Easy day. Tried to go to a bank but it was closed. Sometimes they are open on saturday, but not today.
Visit at the post office to call Italy. Must wait half an hour or so. It must be easier to call the moon.
Easy afternoon at Larissa's home watching Italy vs Poland, a friendly match. Not so exciting, ends up 2-2. Anyway better than when we lost to Poland in the 1974 World Cup in Germany.
After the match Borzena gives us no choice: her mother has prepared dinner for us and we are expected. Again an avalanche of proteins, cold and hot, has fallen over the dining table by the time we take our seats.
During dinner we watch some TV and today there is a program on mountaineering. The whole country is justifiably proud that a Polish expedition has reached the summit of Mount Everest in February of this year, the first team to make it in Winter. Leszka Cichy and Krzysztof Wielicki are national heros.
It is, appropriately, unseasonably cold in Warsaw. When we leave Borzena's place to go home it is snowing!
