We left after 6 am mass at the Cathedral (top left pic) to head out into a foggy mist and cool air. We spotted a WW I cemetery with German soldiers who perished in the war. It was a stark contrast with the many Polish cemeteries bedecked with bright flowers (see pics).
The highlight of the day was undoubtedly a trail angel who offered us a ride at midway. Although we turned down the ride, we accepted her offer to stay at their house! So after finishing our 29 km walk (18 mi), we arrived tired and weary at Monica's house. She made a scrumptious dinner for us, we talked (her English was excellent), and Eddie took her Rhodesian Ridgeback dog for a stroll--they're now buddies for life and Eddie will miss her. Am also doing laundry using a machine--what a treat!
