How do you say "ham" in Polish?

Last night was an experience. I went out with some friends of one of the girls in our group, Justyna (that might be spelled wrong- sorry!). They were very fun and it was nice to be around people who spoke Polish- for real. However, I made a critical mistake by ordering chlodnick, the magenta soup, at a local bar. It had ham in it! yuck! That's not the worst part though. After eating just a bit of ham soup and confirming that the meaty texture was, in fact, ham I went home to be sick. So, needless to say, I'm not feeling very good today. I'll write more tomorrow after recovering from the shock of meat to my delicate vegetarian system.

Watch out, the Polija are coming!

Hello Everyone. Bad news my camera is gone. It was either stolen or I left it somewhere, but either way, it's gone. I headed a mad search for it when we got back into Warsaw from Krakow, but to no avail. So, needless to say, I will not be posting photos right away. I started a flickr accout with rest of the people from the Warsaw trip, so I will have access to all of the photos, but until everyone loads them, I don't have any :(. Anyway, this weekend we went to Krakow, which was really cool. Krakow is south of Warsaw. We took a two hour train ride from Warsaw on Friday. In Krakow, we stayed in a hostel near Old Town. We were very excited because our room had a hook for the shower (We later found out that it wasn't exactly effective, but at first we were excited). Old Town was really cute, more like what I imagined Poland to look like before I came. There were many churches and synagogues that dated back to way before the war. We toured the city on Sunday including the castle, Wawel, and the Jewish District, Kazimierz. On Saturday we took a tour of the Salt Mines of Krakow, which were very cool (both figuratively and literally). Krakow was really hot and we spent most of the day underground. There were interesting sculptured scenes of the history of Poland, as well as the history of the Salt Mine itself (and they were all edible- we licked the walls). In addition to all of the touring we had a great time at night! The majority of the kids on the trip went out to a pub and then to a club to dance. By the end of the night everyone was a hot sweaty mess, but we had a great time.

**there will be pictures soon- i promise**
