Our tour of Poland starts in the city of Chabowka. Chabówka [xaˈbufka] is a village located on the outskirts of the southern Polish town of Rabka, in the Nowy Targ County, Lesser Poland Voivodeship. With population of 1,600 (as for 2006), Chabówka is a popular tourist attraction because of its location near the Gorce Mountains featuring Gorce National Park. From here we travel south on some such highway to Klikuszowa. Klikuszowa [klikuˈʂɔva] is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Nowy Targ, within Nowy Targ County, Lesser Poland Voivodeship, in southern Poland. It lies approximately 7 kilometres (4 mi) north-west of Nowy Targ and 61 km (38 mi) south of the regional capital Kraków.
 
Day Two: We visit Aunt Edna in Malbork. Alas, she’s in a coma so we move on to Uncle Jimmy in Elblag. The city was almost totally destroyed at the end of World War II. Parts of the inner city were eventually rebuilt, and ca. 2000, rebuilding was begun in a style emulating the previous architecture, in many cases over the same foundations and utilizing the old bricks and portions of the same walls. The western bank part of the old city is now completely gone.

Day Three: Uncle Jimmy hasn’t returned from his walk so it’s on to Wola Baranowska. Then a short hop to Huta Komorowska.

Day Four: We’ve been driving for 122 hours straight.

Day Five: Back on the road from Gmina Strzelin to Lagiewniki. Gmina Strzelin is an urban-rural gmina (administrative district) in Strzelin County, Lower Silesian Voivodeship, in south-western Poland. Its seat is the town of Strzelin, which lies approximately 39 kilometres (24 mi) south of the regional capital Wrocław.
The gmina covers an area of 171.69 square kilometres (66.3 sq mi), and as of 2006 its total population is 21,656 (out of which the population of Strzelin amounts to 12,192, and the population of the rural part of the gmina is 9,464).

Our last day takes us from Sarnaki to Konstantynow.
