Month: May 2019

To The Castle and back

Posted on 05/31/2019 by margrad80

I did a walk one day to see one statue, but there wasn’t enough to do a blog post on it, so I have just put them into this blog, because, had I walked down a parallel street I would have passed this statue on on the way to the Castle. I find the sidewalks…

May 24, 2019: Changing of the Guard

Posted on 05/27/201905/27/2019 by margrad80

I have been planning for a long time to get down the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier and take some photos for the blog. The first time I went there was late in the evening right after I got to Warsaw. Gina and I had been to supper, and were just walking around that part…

Come Drink the Wine

Posted on 05/26/201908/08/2019 by margrad80

Okay I am totally stealing that title from a book I used to have. I wasn’t able to find it by Googling so maybe I have the name wrong. But that won’t prevent me from telling the story. The book was fictional, perhaps a romance. I had just moved and my then husband was helping…

May 20, 2019: A Walk, Just to Get Out of the Apartement.

Posted on 05/26/2019 by margrad80

I really had nowhere to go, but after so many days of rain, I just had to get out of the apartment. I walked down the Park Moat and the Citadel slope, around the Warsaw Citadel, to walk around the last part of the perimeter that I had not seen yet. As I headed straight…

An Unscheduled Vacation From Blogging

Posted on 05/23/201905/22/2019 by margrad80

It all started with the rain. It has been a long time since I have lived anywhere, where the rain can continue day after day. I am used to an occasional day of rain, or even more often just a morning or afternoon of rain. So I really didn’t think to check the ten day…

A Problem with WordPress: Workaround

Posted on 05/22/2019 by margrad80

The other day I logged on to WordPress and went to the My Site page. Going down to post, I clicked on Drafts. This drew up the list of unfinished post. I really should kill some of them, as I don’t think I am going to be going back to them. I clicked on the…

First Your Phone Eats: May 11, 2019

Posted on 05/22/2019 by margrad80

Today, wasn’t a tourist day for me. I spent the day at home writing before heading out to meet my friend for lunch. I caught up on my blogging, but still haven’t managed to get back into writing my next novel. One of the problems is that I would really like to skip it and…

Wine Tasting: May 9, 2019

Posted on 05/13/2019 by margrad80

My friend sent me a link to the Facebook page for this wine tasting, Simply Italian 2019. When I logged on to get a ticket I found that they had a short list of things you could be to attend. I checked off Blogger. So I guess I need to blog about it in return…

How to break your heart in Warsaw: May 8, 2019

Posted on 05/13/201905/13/2019 by margrad80

I don’t have to walk downtown to find history in Warsaw. I live very close to the Warsaw Citadel (Polish: Cytadela Warszawska). I had been meaning to go over and see the Tenth Pavilion at the Citadel, for a while. As it turned out, I kept getting sidetracked, and waiting until it was too late…

Warsaw’s Favorite son: May 8, 2019

Posted on 05/08/201906/11/2019 by margrad80

One of the things which surprised me the most when I visited the Père Lachaise Cemetery in Paris five years ago, was how many famous persons were buried there. The one I found most surprising was Frédéric Chopin, I would have thought that an effort would have been made to bring his body back to…

My Inconvenient Live

I am a retired American Merchant Mariner.  l was living a nomadic lifestyle somewhere between being a nomad and an expat, before Covid19. I moved from country to country as my visas ran out. This blog covered my travels and the random thoughts about life, technology, travel, and the Oxford comma. Now I am stuck waiting for the pandemic to pass. During this time my posts will have very little to do with traveling, and more to do with keeping myself entertained during lockdown.
