Warsaw Tired

Today, we spent 11 straight hours running around Warsaw. Our morning began with a stroll along the Royal Way which led to Old Town Warsaw. After lunch, we walked through the area that used to be the Jewish Warsaw Ghetto and then headed for the Warsaw Up Rising Museum. The museum is actually not about the Jewish revolt in the ghetto but about the few months the Poles bravely faught the Nazi's while Russian tanks were parked 25 miles away. Least to say, Warsaw looks pretty good today considering the whole city was rubble in 1945.

Our evening concluded at the Warsaw Totilla Factory. I realized I have not had Mexican food since Cambodia and that was 4 months ago. I think that is one of the only draw backs to long term travel.

Jayme's family is on the night train to Vienna and we are heading to Gdansk in the morning. I'm beat but it never gets dark here so going to bed at 9pm is a little tough.
