4th Day - Thursday (czwartek)

Nursing

Women play a special role in the Warsaw Uprising. Women and young girls fight or organize things like nursing:

There are countless love stories that unite men and women during this time - for the rest of their lives.

After 63 days

however, the fight is lost. The expected help from Stalin's Red Army did not come. They didn't expect that.

The Germans' revenge on the insurgents and the population is merciless. Warsaw is reduced to rubble through systematic bombings, and the population is massacred.

But even in communist Poland, the insurgents will later be brought to trial.

Who is supposed to understand all of this? I'll try, that's why I'm here.

Now I really need a break and go to the café feeling upset.

'Kawa i kawałek ciasta'

Hopefully they don't notice here that I'm German. When I asked for the audio guide in German, they looked at me strangely...

'Kawa i kawałek ciasta'. The waitress looks at me critically and decides that asking about the type of cake doesn't make much sense in this case. I'm very grateful to her ;-) 

Crossroads of Cultures Festival

I'm going there now - despite everything! The Skrzyżowanie is after all a world-famous festival!

Fanfara Tirana - a Rock Concert

15 men in white skirts rocking the stage, just a rock concert ;-) What a spectacle!
