Another reason why Warsaw is such a great place to live

Mrs James and I enjoyed a fun few trips on the Vistula river this morning, thanks to the largesse of our local authority. A range of boats were available for anyone to have a ride, including a speedboat, which I found was great fun! I do admit, I had been griping earlier this year when my local real estate tax jumped from around PLN 400 (EUR 85) to PLN 500 (EUR 106) for this year. But it’s difficult to complain when, in addition to all of the local amenities one would expect, the authority will also organise one of the city’s sailing clubs to send a few boats to give free rides for local residents. Here are a few pics. Stay safe peeps!
