After a VERY long trip, including 4 different planes, 5 different airports and almost 30 sleepless hours, we made it to Poland from Australia and were happily greeted by Mario’s parents.

During our 10 day stay, we spent 2 days at Aneta and Mariusz’s (Mario’s sister and brother in law) house. From there we all went to the third biggest castle in Poland, Ksiaz (pronounced Kshonch), and stayed 2 nights. At the castle was a huge flower and plant expo which occurs once a year. The setting was beautiful! There was also a bonsai exhibition and Mario gave 2 lectures to a very attentive audience. It was a great weekend!

Back at Czestochowa, we spent the rest of our time relaxing, shopping, eating delicious food and trying to get me a visa!

More from Spain soon...
