Friday 8th.September
Today Warsaw. Taken on an historical tour of the city, our guide was very enthousiastic but Warsaw has such complicated past that it was difficult to get a grip on all the history. We saw lots of statues, memorials and exhibition venues but the Germans flattened a fair chunk of the city in WW2 so most of the city has been rebuilt so it is difficult to join up the present to the past. The old town part was rebuilt by the Soviets to what it was beforehand from old paintings and drawings.
Warsaw is a very busy place and mostly full of restaurants and cafes.
Having trouble uploading pics so will have to do later.
