Warsaw Week Two

Saturday's highlight was that Brad, Rosie, and I spent a solo evening together while Peter and Jessa went to a movie. We had fun playing and hanging out. 

Rosie loves to play, including making food in her kitchen. 

On Sunday we all went out for brunch. Rosie ate a bowl of oatmeal fit for a king - or in her case a queen - and we were all impressed.

In the afternoon we went to Lazienki Park for a Chopin concert at the Chopin Monument. It's something Brad and I have never done before and I'm really glad we went. Rosie liked it too.

Brad and I went to the Warsaw Uprising Museum on Monday. Later in the day I met Jessa and Rosie at a playground after daycare. 

In the evening we went out to pizza and Rosie was, as always, a charming dinner companion.

On Tuesday, Brad and I were guests at The American School of Warsaw. We were living here 24 years ago when this new campus opened and our kids were students. Now Peter works here, the school is vastly remodeled, and the neighborhood around it built up and developed. It was fun to spend a morning in a place with so many happy memories.

Walking to dinner on Tuesday night. When Rosie asks to hold hands, she has no shortage of takers.
On our last full day, Brad and I headed to two adjacent parks. They're called Ujazdowski and Lazienki. Both are beautiful, in different ways. It was finally a warm day and we enjoyed the nice weather. 
Later in the afternoon we went to a playground with Rosie and Jessa. Rosie had been under the weather last night so Jessa stayed home with her today. She had a great time at the park, and later at dinner, so I think her recovery is complete.
After dinner at Peter and Jessa's house we walked down the street for ice cream before saying our goodbyes to Peter and Rosie. We plan to have lunch with Jessa before heading to the airport. It's been a really fun and nostalgic visit. We can't wait to come back to Warsaw and spend time with our favorite local family.
