Well,
Alan is doing great PR for Poland, so I can't add too much.. But while he is
there, he should visit Krakow - the old capital of Poland. It's pretty close
and worth seeing. He should _not_ go to Warsaw - business like and pretty
terrible.. (I might be biased though, as I come from the south :-)
Great mountains there too..
If I can be of help, please let me know.
Tadek

Novy Sacz is pretty close to where my Slovak wife is from, just across the
Slovak border - it's the heart of ancient Polish culture in that area, which
is very similar to Slovak culture. Thankfully by the time the Russians got
that far, WWII fighting was mostly over (the Germans had retreated to the
West or Berlin) so most of the medieval cities in this area have been
preserved. Seeing these places have always made me wonder what Dresden was
like before the war - it was supposed to have been the one of the prettiest
city in Central Europe.
Driving on the roads in all this area also makes it esy to understand why
Tadek would want a classic Healey - the roads are made for running a classic
Healey in the countryside!
Alan
