Well .. Mikowaikee surely isn't written as I have done but that is the pronunciation, so forgive me all the Poles who read this ...it is a pretty town, quite small, on a huge lake and busy with boats - sailboats, rowboats, paddleboats and fast boats. Lots of restaurants. Lots of people - germans and polish folk - almost nothing is written in English.
I went into a bookstore and there were only 2 tourist booklets in English - the rest are Russian, German and even Italian !! I actually am desperate for something fiction to read, and desperate I will remain. Mikowaikee is known for the sculptures. It was a bit too cold for comfort and we ate at a beautiful restaurant that was definitely understaffed for this major holiday (May 1) ... our food took so long I thought maybe they had come to Wengorzewo to catch our fish !!!!
Mikowaikee is just like all other Polish towns - everyone loves icecream !!! and we had some !!

and their specialty is a waffle with whip cream ... maybe other stuff too, I am not sure. after i lose my 200 pounds, maybe i will try one. right now, i am concentrating on tomatoes, cucumber, white cheeses, a diet cracker to put it all on ..... having to pass on the poppyseed cheesecake two times a day is very, very, did I mention that it is VERY, veeeery hard !!!!! 
Once home I went straight to the fitness center since they were only opening for a few hours for the few of us who don't want to miss Friday. I actually want to go every day but this is a holiday weekend and Silvia and Jacob are planning to go to Latvia tomorrow to go to some swimming pools. She is supposed to take pics so I can see what it is like. She thinks it only takes 3 hours to get there but I looked on a map and it seems farther than that. We'll find out on Monday.. At the gym today I walked a fast walk for 2 kilometers, did 35 special situps with the sit back situpmachine, did weights for the flab under my arms as well as an arm weight machine and ended with a shaking machine for the tummy. whatever. silvia suggested it. i will do it. she says it is quite popular. of course it must be, there is no effort at all, you just stand there and get your stomach or leg or arm shaken. weird massage but certainly relaxing. and at the end a hot and strong shower !! there is something wrong with the shower here at the house, it is either scalding hot or freezing cold and drips drips drips. nie, nein, no way jose. give me a good shower any
