Winter holiday is always two weeks in Poland. That is a nice break...ours is only one week, but we do have another week's vacation in April. Yes, the flu is an international and global scourge.  I don't know what you decided, but perhaps Bonobo should be home in bed while the rest of the family parties. That way no germs are spread and you gain necessary rest.  |

I am driving them to that place. It is on the other side of Krakow, at the very bottom of the map. These are my last word before leaving. I brought the car from the garage and I am all wet. But I think I have stopped infecting. Nobody at home caught it from me. |

Since I am leaving today, I have answered early as I didn't want to leave you suspended for too long. Please answer very, very nicely and friendly in order to make my comeback joyful! ;D ;D ;D Poles have started a long weekend. 1 May - Labour Day. 3 May - Constitution Day. 2 May - Flag Day. |

If you are a good husband, you went to the in-laws, and also the parents.

Mike My parents are dead, my wife`s father lives but as he resides in Krakow 5 minute drive from us and we see him quite often, there was no need to visit him. We stayed in the city but each day we did sth special and had a lot of fun. I took 1500 photos, going to show you about 900. Do you think you will swallow it in? Tufta, how many did you take? ;D ;D ;D |

Do you think you will swallow it in? Tufta, how many did you take? ;D ;D ;D Just some 20 , and mainly family-oriented ones... I still have some past promises to fulfill - Jewish cementary, and the village... As to your 900 pics ;D As always I am very much looking forward to see you pics. But my suggestion is the smaller quantities are better at one time. I know it's hard to choose just the best ones |

Vacation is here! At last.
However, I still have to write another report till the end of June. I am going to be sick again. Then an exam.
I think it will spoil half of my holiday time.
But I will earn about 20% more after holidays. ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

But I will earn about 20% more after holidays. ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D Hooray! 20% more is a pleasant thought! Our vacation does not begin until next Tues. June 23rd (we have half a day) Unfortunately, my school system is really scrimping for money, so there is not enough in the budget to finance the work I usually do for 6 weeks during the summer. At first I panicked at the news, wondering how we will pay our bills for the summer months, then there is one side of me that is saying, "Yay, I'm going to have the summer off!" I am being torn in two by these conflicting emotions! ;D  ;D ;D |

Hooray! 20% more is a pleasant thought! Well, I am not a material girl, money doesn`t really matter to me, but it is nice to be appreciated by your superiors. If you came to Poland to teach English, with your attitude and personality, you wouldn`t have any financial problems. ;D ;D ;D ;D |

Sign me up!!! ;D ;D ;D However, does that mean we would be competitors? I simply don't think I could measure up to your pedagogical skills! ;D ;D ;D |

But competiton is a healthy phenomenon, it brings out the best in people for the benefit of students. So, let`s see who`s better!!!! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D |
