Right - well then - guess I'll have to check it all out in Melbourne. So, Polish people aren't into the sunny weather & great beaches like we have in Sydney.........!!! lol

well, poles do come from a cooler climate so that could explain why there are more poles down south.

but that said, the temperatures between melbourne and sydney do not differ much.

and a trip down our great ocean road or to wilsons promitory may change your mind about great beaches

Thanks for that Anielka!

King Sobieski, your beaches along the Great Ocean Road and at Wilsons Promitory are very very beautiful but ........ even though I visited those beaches during the hottest time of the year, I still couldn't swim - the water is simply freezing! But beautiful, nonetheless!

i would have thought ocean grove and the like would have been okay to swim in over summer.

down the mornington area over summer the water isnt that cold, but maybe im used to it.

That would be brilliant Marcin!! I am starting at a position of extreme ignorance though -I really just want to travel there and see as much as is humanly possible. The two countries I really wish to see are Poland and Russia - both because they are so vastly different to Australia.

The two main cities I wish to visit are Krakow and Warsaw. I understand that the warmer temperatures last from around May to July/August - is that true? And if so, are both Krakow and Warsaw still nice during those periods? Also, from some of the stuff I have read, it would seem that although Krakow is the cultural capital there are other places Zakopane which are growing in popularity - would you suggest that it is worth a visit there?!

Also - can you tell me any good places to eat in either Warsaw or Krakow? I find food is so crucial to your experience of a country.... !

Also - for those of you in Australia - I don't suppose you watched the Chaser's War on Everything on the ABC last night?! The Polish Club in Ashfield made an appearance .... although if you watched this particular segment, you may not have found it very funny...

Cheers!

I do worry about those guys sometimes - I live near Kings Cross in Sydney - for those of you who don't know it, it is the red light district of Sydney - and last night they were doing some filming up there. Two of the guys were dressed as bouncers harassing people as they walked down the strip! I walked past them and hope to god I don't make it on the show - I was in my gym gear!

Glad to hear you found that bit funny - sometimes you never can tell how things like that will go down. But the mufti thing was brilliant!

Dingos need love too!

Honestly 'away guy' - what makes you think that your irrational and illiterate ('nad' is not a word) ranting would deter people from visiting Poland? Are you even Polish...?!
If you're Polish - having your own view about your own country is legitimate - but if not... well, you probably don't have much of a right at all.

Of course it is a chat forum away guy - which would indicate that people are encouraged to be friendly - so telling people not to come to a country and to go 'fly ur kite' - doesn't really fit in with that concept.

Perhaps you should just jump on another thread - one that clearly does not have Australians - if it bothers you that much.

Hey Zengirl, I know there is a Polish restaurant in Glebe called Na Zdrowie. I've never been. I'm from Canberra and was really keen to check it out but apparently it's only open for dinner..
i breifly visited the Polish club in Ashfield the other day, they were closed and getting ready for a private function.. so can't comment on that either!

Any events happening??

ps. There is a polish club in bankstown too!!

Hi Miss_S - I read a good review of that restaurant in Glebe. It looks pretty good and the food seems ideal for winter. Where is the Polish club in Bankstown? The last time I tried to contact the club in Ashfield they had a private function on then too... Seems like a pretty busy place then!

Nice to see the Chaser paid another visit to the Polish club last week - in Melbourne though! I think they need to pick another club now.... don't you think?!

if u like polish food, may i suggest a little trip to the polish place. it is in the mountains between brisbane and gold coast. i am very very very critical of food and have a high standard. this restaurant surpassed my expectations for quality, both in food and service. well worth the 1500km trip. and that fact speaks for itself!!!!!!
