When your parents are in Poland you might as well go to visit them in Poland. I found a good deal on tickets to Gdansk and talked Bryant and Paige into joining. Bryant guilt tripped Jay into going and off we went to see Mom and Dad. We flew all night. Super fun. We had delays getting there but it didn’t dull our spirits.
Gdansk is incredibly beautiful city with a rich history. We had a blast walking around while dad played tour guide. Highlights included: Rock Hunting in the Baltic Sea, The biggest brick castle in the world, The Gingerbread Museum, The Amber Museum and Amber Alley, City Hall, Mom toast, Pierogi, Chimney Cakes, Paczki, Apple turnovers, and making fun of Jay.
It was so much fun to see Mom and Dad in their mission city. I loved seeing them magnify their calling. I was floored when Dad conducted Sacrament Meeting in Polish. They are wonderful examples of being out of their comfort zone but still finding joy in serving the Lord. I’m grateful for parents who taught us how to do hard things by example and kicks to the rear.
