For our last night we decided to leave the Old Town (Stare Miasto) and venture into new parts of Warsaw for a special farewell dinner. This was followed by a walk of fountains, the tomb of the fallen soldiers – guarded 24 hours a day, an art gallery, and Teatr Wielki.

Guarded tomb of fallen soliders of Poland
this is guarded 24 hours a day and columns surround it listing each war dating back to the 900s
My dad told us about each battle listed

Then we moved on to the opera house where exactly 10 years ago we saw La Traviata in the Emperor box seats – I will never forget it.

Emmer,
Josette & I have taken great vicarious pleasure in joining you on your travels … See you in Naples!!!
LOVE,
Josette & Uncle Jim
I loved all the pictures and comments. However two words stood out, “stroll” and “leisure” which are not well understood by your uncle!
To him a “stroll” is a 15 minute mile, and “leisure” is 9 countries in 13 days!All this said, I am up to the challenge of broadening his view – there is great satisfaction in a slower pace.
Looking forward to pictures from Italy. Take care. love, Josette
