This page will list proposed ideas for
Ginger's 2027 trip to Poland. She will be in Europe on a
cruise that ends in Copenhagen on July 19, 2027 and will
fly to Kraków on July 20 for a post cruise trip. Kathy has a
cruise on the Rhine River in that starts on July 26, so she
can meet Ginger in Kraków for a pre-cruise trip. Kathy will
arrive in Kraków at least a day before Ginger to adjust to the
time zone changes. During that time, she can explore Old Town
on her own. Milena and her daughter Oliwia, her mother Helena,
and her sister Kasia, can join Ginger and Kathy in Kraków for part or all of the time.
Here are some suggestions on what they could all do together.
No activity is required and additional suggestions are welcome!
Ginger's third cousin Dorota Filipowicz is organizing a family reunion party with other Karaś family decendants at a restaurant in Kraków for Sunday, July 25! Dorota may join Ginger with other activities before or after that. After Kathy leaves for her river cruise on July 26, Ginger will stay in Poland until July 30 in order to do more research with Polish Origins Tours. |
