Its a Fiat 126p (the p is for polish made). We call ours Zissou but there are lots of other affectionate names for them. Total bargain at 399 złoty (about $100)!!!
In Poland it is called Maluch, which literally means ‘a little kid’ or ’something small’, or mały Fiat (’small’ Fiat), on contrary to Fiat 125p (‘big’ Fiat). In some regions, it is also called Kaszlak(most likely derived from kaszel = cough) or “groszek” a pea.
I have arrived in Poznan and am getting settled in. Ola and I have been decorating our apartment and I will put up some pictures of it soon. I am enjoying exploring the city and seeing how people here live. In the winter here some people still heat there houses with coal so there is coal smoke in the air at night. It hangs heavy in the air and I see why some of the buildings are the color of gray that they are.

Well its been awhile since I have made an entry on the travel blog. These pictures are from a successful climb of North Maroon peak near Aspen Colorado. Alan Bartel, my dad, and I made the round trip in around thirteen and a half hours parking lot to parking lot. It was a long day. We left the hotel at 4:30am or so and set off from the trail head at 5:30am and didn’t make it back to the car until around 7pm. The climb went well and the weather held up for us.
