      I was at Neon Museum in Praga yesterday and now I am in Gdansk. Most of my impressions were associated with WW II. I was impressed how the city recovered from destruction without much help from allies. It’s amazing how they were able to exquisitely reconstruct historic buildings during scarce times.

      ive been twice, october 2017 and july 2018, hope to go again, both winter and summer, still plenty more things i want to see and do. its good to learn polish history before a trip to warsaw, as it enhances the experience when you know the things that actually happened here. the city is great to visit out of season when its cold, you get almost every street to yourself, no large queues at museums, or bars, and its cheap anyway, transport is clean and efficient, and the atmosphere is laid back. a walk around warsaw is like a walk through history, from the middle ages,through to pre war modernism, to communist era architechture through to modern skyscrapers. but more of the city needs protected as there is a lot of illegal building and destruction going on due to ownership debates that go back to the end of the war.

But I could certainly sense the laid back vibes you were soaking in :) It has been awhile and you guys came back with a bang!

    Rewatching this one since I hadn't done any comments on it back when it would have been fresh out to everyone. Visiting so many cool spots around Poland must have been really cool, learning tons about Poland & Polish history. I vaguely remember watching this, the shower & toilet paper references is familiar. I love that that they re-purposed the Hala Koszyki building into something really neat, showing off its great architecture and windows for visitors inside.

    Another cool video as always by you & Marc. I"m betting a great many people would love to visit Warsaw themselves one day after viewing this video, of you & Marc inspiring the rest of us to do some more traveling abroad, away from North America. I loved the Chopin monument, as I listen to him, and my other classical composers (Bach, Beethoven, Mozart, and Tchaikovsky ) when working on my studies and need absolutely focused thought. Chopin's Nocturne is very amazing indeed. The "Selfie with Chopin" is a really cool idea, really neat. I'm surprised other countries haven't created a similar type of thing in similar places to promote historical people. Great Video!! Glad you & Marc were able to do lots of video recording on your travels, to show so many cool sights around the world.

Walking on the street in Warsaw, the idea that during the Warsaw Uprising, fighters walked under your feet through the sewers on hot August days from one district to another in filth, often mined and with poisonous gases - not all survived. And you made me taste my favorite cheesecake. Good luck.

    Funny thing. I stayed in at the Peabody hotel in Memphis YRS ago. I was in the lobby and heard a group of guys chatting loudly. I said who are you. They said Metallica. I said, I've never heard of you, which I hadn't. Told my son about it after and he couldnt believe I wouldn't have gotten an autograph for him. How was I to know! Oh well, that's my story.
