Spring

It's spring and the weather is proof.  It is hard to think that it was so cold and snowy.  People are coming out of hibernation, restaurants are opening up the patios, and moods are better.

Housewarming aka single room gift from Valerie.  Still cracks me up.  She actually stole it from the movie theater that is downtown.  It's about 2.5 feet tall and I just wonder what people were thinking when they saw her carry this during the ~30 minute trip back to the dorms

Walking down to the rynek

Easter festival.  They have great food!

Building the patios for the restaurants.  Soon every place will have their patios up and ready.

Crowd gathering for 12noon

At noon a person comes out and plays a trumpet and the rams butt heads (directly above the clock).  First time I have seen it.  

Sushi, 50zl all you can eat.  The sushi comes around on the boats and you can also order from the menu in the foreground.  It goes from 12-5 everyday.  Delicious.  

The Dragon Bar.  iPhone photo, sorry.  It was in this castle with numerous levels, both indoor and outdoor, one of the cooler spots around. 

El ProfessOR doing his best typical Pole impression.  Notice the cigarette, vodka bottle, and of course the face...

The oldest hospital in Poznan.  Goes back to around 1500 if I recall correctly.

Rows of Easter bunnies in the mall.  Looks like an Bunny Army and their leader is that creepy statue of the girl with the huge head.  All over Poznan there are tons of bunnies the size of humans and all different colors, quite funny.  

Ostrich egg.  They had 4 at the local grocery store, each 100zl.  Valerie thought it was the funniest thing and needed to get it.  

Opening.  We watched a few ways to do it via youtube.  We decided, after making a small hole in it, to just hit it with a hammer and some of the egg launched out of the hole and hit me in both the lip and shirt.  

one huge egg

cant forget the Lamb butter

They made omelets for all 4 of us with a bunch left over.  Valerie made a TON of cookies, more leftover egg, and said she never wants to see an egg again.  

I want to get one of the remaining 3 to make one sunny side up style.
