Summer is at least a propicious period for Angers inhabitants to relax but also to discover new countries. Some of them, Percy and Edward, readers of Angers Daily News sent to that blog a message about Poland where they were invited by an American friend native from that country. If Angers and surroundings are hit by the economic slowdown, Polish cities have not yet reached the same state of development. Their observations about daily conditions of life of Polish families may relativize the own difficulties Angers inhabitants are complaining about.
"The road are in bad condition and full of lorries", notices Anthony on way with his brother to the Auchwitz camp after a 143 kms trip "which took us two hours and a half". Regarding the gas, "the prices are the same as in France. So many people use to travel by bike and apparently, it's not for health or fitness purposes".
Another way allowing to compare the economic development is the food. The two brothers notice Polish people look to eat high-energy food. Few vegetables are on daily menus. "The care about sane fooding has not yet been 'swallowed' by Polish people but, one of these days it will surely be on the tracks", they remark. Sport doesn't seem to be a daily hobby of people. "Most of them only know soccer and few practice jog. In the sports stores, fashion items are more numerous than sports equipment". But Polish very welcoming people and the two Angers chaps look have good time there.
