I spent 11 November in Warsaw in 2009.? It?poured the whole time, but in spite of that the celebrations in Pilsudski Square by the Unknown Soldier's Monument were very festive and you couldn't move it was so crowded.? People came from all over Poland to take part and the atmosphere was fantastic.? I also found it very moving to see all the flowers and candles lying beneath the plaques?marking places in the streets of Warsaw where the Germans had executed so many Poles. ?
