Bus Ride |
After the uprising |
The Getto |
Rain is coming down hard. I head to the bus station. No ticket office so I wait for the bus. I negotiate for the bike being carried. I am sure the bus driver is having a beer on
me. For me $20 is not a bad price. As
the rain comes down I avoid muddy farm roads.
Bus has internet so I am able to research hostels on the way to Warsaw. First one seems fine so I take it. As the rain has let off I tour some of the
city. There are lots of statues holding
swords. There is much on the Warsaw
uprising and the resulting raising of the city.
Over 85% of the buildings were destroyed. Across from the hostel are
large pictures of the uprising with the dead lying in the streets. So city I am seeing was rebuilt. A small corner of a building is left un
coated and there are a dozen bullet holes in the concrete.
Love & kisses
Steve
