Saturday, June 1st took off from JFK to Munich for the transfer to the flight to Rzeszow, Poland.
Long flight, but got about 5 hours sleep, so not all that tired when I got there. At the Munich airport lounge, I discovered the long-missing Tony Soprano enjoying his breakfast. Shhhhh. Please don’t tell anybody…
And, for you soccer fans, I walked by this store in the Munich airport:
From there, I flew to Rzeszow, Poland, where LP has been present for over 25 years. There, I had a wonderful dinner with Pawel Wronski, who has been with LP from the beginning. It was great to see him. He is a special guy and always fun to be with.
Pawel took me to a great local restaurant in the city center for a DELICIOUS bowl of Polish borscht and then pig knuckles that were also delicious.
A quick but worthwhile stop. I actually flew out a day early, so I would have a few hours in Rzeszow to see Pawel. I would have hated to rush from the plane to the train without getting to see him. If I had left on Sunday, that’s what would have happened. But this way, I got a good night’s sleep Sunday night in the airport hotel, had this great dinner with him, shared some stories and good laughs, then got picked up to head to the train station for our ride into Kyiv.
In normal times, that would be a short flight. But as we too well know, these are not normal times there, so air travel is non-existent. Instead, it’s an 8-10 hour trip by train.
No problem there. I like trains.
On to Kyiv.
