Monday In Warsaw

Yes after a good nights sleep I got up at 9!
Got to the gym before 10. The gym at this hotel is awesome, huge and tons of equipment.

After that I asked for directions to the Gestapo Headquarters, its a museam now - anyway in the Hilton Lounge and the Concerige both told me where to go, they forgot to mention its closed Monday!!!!!

 This is the outside of the Gestopo HQ
And for a while it was the only thing I was going to see of it.
How do I get in, all doors are locked, use my cunning, my guile?
Nope Zloty's

I went to the gate becuase even though it was locked the door behind it was open, so I said Hello (yes in English).

Then my new best friend in Poland appeared.
He pointed to the wall and said "closed Monday and Tuesday" ah ha, clearly an English speaking friend.

.But after taking a couple of Pictures he was done, so I gave him some Zloty's.

He says "Private Tour" and he brought me inside.

This is a baby crib that was in the prison that the Gestapo ran at the HQ, I am not sure what the baby did , my new BF in Poland tried to explain but he used the last of his English explaining all the people were "kaput".

After about a 15 minute private tour I said goodbye, using all of my Polish.

By now I am really hungry, because I slept through the free breakfast.


This is the San Lorenzo in the Centrum.
Highly touted on Tripadvisor.com The San Lorenzo

I had an excellent pizza, we some diet coke, for $10!

But there is something wrong with the waitress, she provides good service! Clearly she requires retraining. Wait until I report her to the Politburo.




On the way back to the hotel I took a couple of photos of the skyline and the train station.

As you can see from the last photo, the Warsawites are ultra-efficient.

They will teach you English right next door where you can learn to eat like an American!

Next post, update from dinner and spellbinding time the Lounge with some lady screaming into her cellphone during a con call.
