poland day 3

Haidie,

here we are again. We are just 8 days away from home but it feels so much more.
Last time we mailed we were still in Berlin. Friday we visited Tachales, an anarchistric building with some nice art stuff ( look at the pictures).
Anna told us about deserted places and buildings nearby Berlin, so we tried to find the hospital. It was so great and really magnificent but it was almost dark and so it became very very spooky. I was really not at my ease so we searched a place to sleep and found one behind the firefighters :) apparently there are a lot of young people in the weekends who come to this place so they screamed and threw little noisy bombs. The next morning we looked at another building the gymnasium, what was very big! Nice place, we are glad we've seen it.
so we started to hitch hike to Woodstock. After a while hitch hiking in Germany I can say that they are not so willing to take us, it is rather dificult and I don't know why. It looks like they are scared of us and don't trust us. But evently we managed to reach Woodstock and it was so overhelming! So many people, it was like crazy. Cars and tents everywhere, we couldn't make a difference between the campingspace and the music arrea.
But it was a good experience, seen that, done that.
yesterday we tried to hitch hike to Krakau, picked up by Wojciech. People here drive like crazy! We visited his grandmother and tried the talk a bit in English but it was really hard. Eventually arrived in Wroclaw and slept in a little hostel. It was so nice to take a shower after all the dust from Woodstock! :)
So we met Alex, a really nice guy from Austria, he took us to the centre of the city and explained us how to get around. Now, we are planning to hitch hike to Krakau and find a place to sleep. Good luck to us and see you next time :)
