Honeymoon by James Patterson & Howard Roughan

I have no idea why this book made the New York Times Bestseller list. The plot was very convoluted and didn’t come close to being plausible.

“Silent Partner” by Stephen Frey

Found Silent Partner by Stephen Frey on my bookshelf a couple of days ago. I think my Dad gave it to me last year after he read it. Read it in less than a day as it was an enjoyable thriller and wasn’t in the mood to do anything constructive. The story is about Angela Day who...

“The Last Patriot” by Brad Thor

The Last Patriot by Brad Thor is a by the numbers action thriller.  I bought it at JFK to read while visiting my in-laws this summer.  It was great bed time reading as I was jet lagged for the first couple of nights.  The story was riveting and held my interest.  I did have...

Zakopane – Summer 2009

September 15, 2009

After visiting the Wieliczka Salt Mine, Ela and I took Route 7 south to Zakopane in the Tatra Mountains.  Zakopane is the premier Polish vacation destination for both the winter and summer.  It is home to the Goral (mountain) culture.  The buildings have a unique architectural style that is not found else where in Poland.  It was my...

September 14, 2009

I have wanted to see the Wieliczka Salt Mine since I saw it featured on a History Channel documentary four or five years ago.  The mine is the oldest continually operated mine in the world and is filled with statues craved from salt.  It is only about 14 kilometers from Krakow so Ela and I...

Krakow – Summer 2009

September 14, 2009

Ela and I drove to Krakow from Lubianka this summer.  We took Route 1 basically straight down to Krakow.  The traffic wasn’t bad except as we passed through Lodz.  My only major complaint about Poland is that they need an efficient highway system that doesn’t stop you at traffic lights in urban centers.  It was the...

Torun – Summer 2009

September 12, 2009

Ela and I went into Torun on August 31, 2009 to walk around and see the sights.  Not much has changed from last summer.  It is remarkable how Torun has been transformed over the 15 years that I have been visiting it.  When I first visited the city it still had the communist drabness to...

June 15, 2009

Ela & I went for the first time yesterday to Yin Yang Grand Buffet in Stony Brook.  I haven’t been to a Chinese buffet style restaurant since we moved to Long Island – over 5 years.  This restaurant was much better than I remember previous similar styled buffets in Westchester.  Typically Chinese buffets put...
