A very sad day as we left in the morning. Uncle Eddie came for breakfast again and Stella ensured we were filled up for our train journey. She also gave us bread rolls, cake and drink for our 4½ hour journey to Warsaw. Zbyszek drove Stella, Uncle Eddie, Terry and I to the station and then he went back to work. Stella and Uncle Eddie waited with us for the train and it was a very sad parting. Our visit was better than I could have dreamed.
Our train seemed to take a more direct route to Warsaw than we had done on Saturday and we arrived in Warsaw about 2 o'clock. While I waited with our bags, Terry queued to reserve our tickets to Berlin on Sunday. We finally arrived at our hotel, Novotel, and relaxed a bit before going for a short walk and having dinner at a local restaurant. We sat by a window and watched the passers by, many of whom were dressed in Polish red and white as Poland plays Austria tonight in the European Cup and there is hope that they will win this time. There was much excitement in the streets.
