Arrival in Warsaw

Apologies for the delay in writing this, we were having connection problems.

Our flight arrived at Frederic Chopin Airport a little early and, after a short delay in waiting for our luggage, we were met by our Polish representative Jacek Karowski who currently has a fleet of new vehicles on their way from the factory.

Our taxi is undergoing a final service before we start the journey and therefore we are taking advantage of an hour’s break to finally get something to eat. Sadly, the diets we have both been recently trying to keep to have fallen at the first hurdle. Nigel has dived into a large fry-up breakfast complete with chips whilst Matthew’s burger alone must have contained at least two days worth of recommended calorie intake (mind you half of it went down his shirt)

At 12.00hrs we are due to collect the taxi and set off on the first leg of the journey – a three hour drive to the Polish town of Chelm which is about 12 miles before the Polish-Ukraine border.

We have no SatNav (mainly because Ukraine is not covered) so we are relying on Google Maps. However, it is virtually a straight road to Chelm from Warsaw so we shouldn’t go wrong………
