Day 5 Warsaw – Warsaw 0/1.239 km

Blijf op de hoogte en volg Rudy

25 April 2014 | Polen, Warschau

We already have travelled quite a bit to the east so the sun comes up early. Before 8 Rudy was up and about and around 10 we were ready to go up the sloop again into the old town. The historical city museum on the old town square was closed except for a film about city life before the war followed by the destruction. The Royal Castle museum further up the road was open and we enjoyed the views of the beautifully restored King apartments (1740). The large rooms were also used for many governmental events in the past such as the acceptance of the first constitution in 1791. The rest of the day was spent strolling up and down the “Royal Way” with its churches and palaces as well as a visit to the Stalinist palace of culture and science and for Jamaliah a shopping mall. The 9 hrs stroll did takes its toll on the feet and ankles and we were glad to be back in the camper.

Rudy

We are a family of 4. Rudy Welling was a Principal Production Technologist with Shell/NAM's offshore team. He first went on sabbatical from April 2014 to April 2016. In that period he made a return trip to Vladivostok with his wife, Jamaliah, in camper Passepartout. This was followed by trips to New Zealand and Spain. In April 2016 Rudy re-joined NAM/Shell again in Assen for a year and then retired in May 2017 after 37 years with Shell. He and his family have spent some 21 years in various Shell locations around the world (NL, UK, Brunei, NL, USA, Nigeria, Oman, NL). Jamaliah Jaja is the Manager of the house and comes from Brunei. Anton (1993) studies Business IT in Groningen Bernard (1994) studies Mechatronics also in Groningen Both boys still live at home, but will have to run the household on their own when we start our trip. Our previous trip by car (Volkswagen Passat Station) was from Oman to Holland in 2007. Rudi's great plan is to travel with his wife in a camper around the world. The trips will be in steps. The first is from Amsterdam to Vladivostok. De second from Tierra Del Fuego in Argentina over the PANAM highway to Prudo Bay in Alaska. Australia and New Zealand will be separate side trips and Africa will either be done out and back from Amsterdam or just from the Cap to Amsterdam. Now as K/O of Rudi's retirement we are making this second step on a journey around the world. We hope you will enjoy our story Rudy & Jamaliah
