Where have you been?

Another, although somehow less important, holiday in November is Poland's Independence Day. It is November 11th but comes and goes with little or no fanfare. People get the day off of work, the government will meet and give speeches around the Tome of the Unknown Soldier, and that is about it. No fireworks, no parades, no flags on houses, hell, we didn't even drink Vodka!

This pictures shows my sweetheart playing with the public phone near our house. I used this phone to call home before we got a VoIP phone installed courtesy of PT Inter-Media, the company my girlfriend works for.
