The breakfast buffet at the Grand Hotel was excellent.
After breakfast on the first day, we went to Gdansk, on an invitation to meet a relative. She’s my grandmother’s cousin’s daughter. So, one can certainly say we are more distant relations. But she remembers that her father and my grandmother used to write to each other. She also has met my grandmother’s siblings when they visited Poland about 30 years ago. She and her husband gave us a nice tour of the center of Gdansk.
I’d been to Gdansk before, but it was nice to see some items with an insider’s point of view.
We also went on to visit a variety of places in Gdansk, including the Solidarity Monument
and the cathedral in Oliwa, famous for its massive pipe organ.
