The small town of Wawalnica (Wąwałnica, 'von-vol-neets-a') in Eastern Poland is one of my favorite places. It is poor with a church growing rich on pilgrims coming to see its miraculous Madonna, it has a cemetery on the side of a hill that is lit at night by hundreds or thousands of candle lamps on the graves, a narrow gauge railway, great wooden cottages, picturesque countryside and interesting sandy gullies to be walked.
The Citroen Traction Avant is one of two I know in this region, and they were once used by government officials back in the 1950s. The wooden building behind it is the town hall.
