Why Do You Love Poland? [907]
Thats very sad. Really sad, in fact.
RN, thank you for your reply I am also a Dublin man who left many years ago, I was sixteen and a bit just left school, and joined the Royal Navy with my pal to see the world. We had visions of being on the same ships and exploring wonderful countries together. Of course it never worked out like that, the next time we saw each other again was 45 years later. As you can imagine we had plenty to talk about.
There are lots of professional, beautiful pictures of Tatra mountains here:
Eurolo, thank you for the stunning pictures, I enjoyed looking at them very much with your permission I will download them, and keep them in an album.
The picture you mention is likely that of Our Lady of Czestochowa also known as The Black Madonna of Czestochowa. Without a doubt the most important and the most sacred of Poland's religious symbols:
Darius you are called after a Persian King, are you from Persia a wonderful civilisation that gave so much to the world. You were right Darius it was "The Black Madonna of Czestochowa," I could hear my friend in my mind saying it, but i could not remember the name Czestochowa. When my brother married in Spain in a town called Chipiona in El Andalus, they also had a Black Madonna. Thank you Darius for your help I shall look out for your posts.
Kindest regards to all.
PS I'm not really sad just regretful about all the question I should have asked, and now that I'm older I seem to have more questions then answers.
