Day 2 - Warsaw

Warsaw is a mixture of old and new in terms of architecture.  Many buildings were destroyed during World War II and a massive ghetto for detaining Jews occupied a large part of the city.  This has now been torn down with only a wall or two remaining as a monument and reminder.  We arrived after a long day of travel.  A quick freshen up in our hotel then off to the convent "Sisters of Our Lady of Mercy" for a beautiful Mass.  Afterwards a HUGE and delicious dinner of local flavor at "Magat".  Just what these weary travelers needed.  A taste of the local brew with fellow pilgrims, the off to a good night sleep.
