Speed Tour of Warsaw












The first day here we had a break from the conference on sociology. We were all hungry so we went to the closest cafe to school, Roosters. It turned out to be the polish equivalent to Hooters..so yeah, it was awkward. Later that night, we went out to dinner which was really nice. The next day we went on the fastest tour of Warsaw. Our tour guide was a small, polish man named George. He was very hard to understand, but very charming. Here are several sites of Warsaw. **photos are: top, left- this is the monument for Chopin in the park near our hotel. top, right- this is a view of the Warsaw library (my favorite thing so far). second row, left- roosters. sec row, right- old town everything has been rebuilt to look as it did before destruction. cool mural I saw walking home. next, is the summer house of a king. Finally, is the front view of the library before the storm we got caught in. <3 Lee
