This morning, after breakfast, we went for a walk around the local area, up to the church, along the river and across the bridge.

There are fruit trees everywhere - apples, pears, black currants, blackberries, and plums, and they have huge snails here.
Back at Ciocia's we had lunch - potato dumplings and pork with goulash sauce. There was a lot left over, so the renovator's (Darek, Wiesiek and friend) came to have some food too.

Later, we went to the city centre for some shopping. I am looking for some Australian story books, translated into Polish of course, for little Olga. I might have more luck in Warsaw or Krakow. We saw a large church in the city, from the 14th century.
We are still concerned that we have lost our bookings for return flights to London, so we call in on Kamila for help. She called the Polish contact for British Airways and was told that our flights are still on the system. We are very grateful for her help, and she told us to never forget that their door is always open for us. We enjoy our time with Mirka, Kamila and Olga, and then go home to Ciocia's for supper of sausages and bread. STS (second teenage son) has been enjoying the food, too, which has surprised everyone, most of all me.
