Classifieds / Where to Buy Wall Map of Poland Online? [6]

Have you tried Amazon Marketplace?

Amazon's a good idea - not sure how I didn't think of that. It looks like they mostly just have antique-style maps, though. I think she'd want a modern one. There's one on allegro.pl that might be ok...wish its preview was a little bigger.

Yeah, the one on mapsales was what I'd linked originally. It's a possibility, but I was just looking for something a little more detailed. Thanks for the assist, though.

Classifieds / Where to Buy Wall Map of Poland Online? [6]

I've been looking for a nice wall map of Poland to get my wife for Christmas, but haven't found anything I really liked. Any idea where I could find that online to buy? I'd prefer that it be framed, but can frame it after receiving it instead if necessary.

To give an idea what I'm looking for, here's my front runner so far:
mapsales.com/graphiogre/country-wall-maps/poland-political-wall-map.aspx

I'd like one with more detail than that, though. For instance, there are a number of towns (including the one where her father lives) which are not listed here.

I also thought this map on ebay was kind of cool - it doesn't have the towns either, but the pictures made up for that - but they say it's creased and with waterstains, so that's out:

Travel / Restaurant reviews in Poland. [86]

The best restaurant in Gdańsk? No competition here if you like fresh, delicious, and sophisticated food - Rastauracja Filharmonia (near the opera house). Our best dinner in Tricity ever!!! :-)

Language / Polish slang phrases - most popular. [606]

"dresiarz" - to describe a guy whose outfit of choice is a tracksuit, who isn't necessarily smart but has big muscles to make up for that, and for whom three things are of utmost importance: "fura, skóra i komóra" (car, girl, and a cell phone). :-)
